Plantin

The truffle, that legendary, mystic diamond with its compelling bouquet, has a very special place in the French gourmet way of life.Since 1930, PLANTIN champions the supremacy of the art of truffles, from the heart of one of the main truffle-producing areas and with the most distinguished note of gourmet tradition! We unceasingly search the globe to find the very best varieties of mushrooms and truffles like the amazing Tuber melanosporum. We select nothing but the best truffle fields, managed by people with passion. As truffle-growers, their everyday life is punctuated with planting the best mycorrhizal shrubs, perfect plot irrigation, careful tree maintenance and traditional truffle harvesting. It takes all the skills of our master workers, passed down over the generations, to make our diamonds perfect: delicate brushing and minute hand-sorting by size, shape and olfactory note. PLANTIN offers the fruit of these skills and jeweller-like expertise for sale in four prestige ranges: Fresh truffles pure & simple; Truffles all year round; Dried mushrooms with distinction; Truffled delights and seasoning, a range of taste-packed spreads and seasoning to accompany special dishes and gourmet meals. For extra special gifts, PLANTIN’s prestige gift boxes focus on the very best in all four ranges. More than half our sales turnover is from exports sold in North America, right across Europe and as far as Asia. Our customer base began with the world’s greatest Chefs, but now our diversified ranges have extended our appeal across all the other segments of the market too: Gourmet food shops, delicatessens, wine cellars and wine producers; The food and catering industry using the finest raw materials and the most renowned gourmet restaurants across France and worldwide.
