About Truffelkelder

Truffelkelder is a Dutch specialty store for truffles and dried wild mushrooms from Italy, France, and Spain. We are a small family business and work directly with producers who process their own products.

How we choose

We buy from houses that can tell us exactly what is in the jar. For every product, we record what is stated on the label:

• the species with its Latin name, such as Tuber melanosporum or Tuber aestivum;
• the harvest month, because for summer and autumn truffles, that determines the difference;
• the truffle percentage and the drained weight of the jar;
• the aroma designation, taken literally from the ingredients list;
• the commercial grade for dried mushrooms.

You can read what those designations mean in the aroma ladder on a truffle label and in the harvest calendar.

The shop

The shop opens this autumn with a small, fixed selection, including whole truffle in a jar, dried porcini and chanterelles, and pasta and risotto from houses that publish their percentages. Until then, you will find our knowledge base here.
