When mature, the Italian Black Summer truffle is near black on the surface with a pale grey flesh and white marbling that does not change color when exposed to air. It has a rich woodsy aroma with flavors of garlic, wild mushroom and earthy hazelnut undertones. Produce life: 1 week, kept into a refrigerator at 37.5 °F (3 °C ), wrapped in paper towel.
