Truffles can be found in different parts of the world, but you may be wondering about their origin and quality. France is known for its black winter truffles, especially in the Provence region.

Although these are the primary areas, other European countries like Spain and Eastern Europe are also progressing in the truffle industry. So, watch the video to find out about the differences between white and black truffles, where to find them, and why these treasures are more valuable than gold.
Liv and Cornelius share their inspiring journey behind the opening of their truffle company. They explain the efficient truffle-hunting methods they employ and highlight that dogs, not pigs, are the preferred truffle-hunting companions. Their expertise has made truffle-hunting dogs widely recognized for their ability to locate these hidden treasures.
