Editorial Review: Product Description: Black winter truffles are far superior to their summer cousins. There is a long pause between the time a truffle reaches full size and the time when it fully matures. Summer truffles are less flavorful since they are dug up before the full maturation period is reached in the winter months. You will always pay more for black winter truffles. Connoisseurs prize them. Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - black trufflesI though this product lack flavor as I taste different brands far better. There were no real flavor as I expected. Sorry Rating: - beware, these are tuber indicum, not melanosporumThese are not black winter truffles (Tuber melanosporum). I thought the price was too good to be true, (even though they aren't fresh), and it is. These are Tuber indicums. It says so right on the label. I was very angry about this, but JR Mushrooms has said they will refund me for the truffles and even let me keep them. So I give JR credit for excellent responsiveness and customer service, although I still feel they should not be labeled "black winter truffles". Rating: - Customer SeviceRecieved the truffles in one day shipping the customer service is over the top...I opened the jar and enjoyed the aroma, I will shop with them again Rating: - Great Service. Interesting ProductThis review is mostly about the seller. They are great! The product arrived within 2 days, with standard shipping. I have never had black truffles before. They have a very earthy, smoky flavor that really emerges when lightly sauteed in butter. They are an expensive, pleasant, treat. Rating: - Nothing specialThese truffles are not as great as they are made up to be. I thought for the price they would have a greater taste, but they didn't have much taste at all. They are not worth the price, but had to find out for myself. I will not be buying truffles again, and I'm not going to spend over $10 for a fresh one. |
