点评:I had an amazing time truffle hunting with Massimo and Bice (Massimo’s truffle hunting dog) this is truly a once in a lifetime experience. I went on the truffling and home lunch tour. Massimo customizes his tours based on each guest, and really makes them feel like they’re apart of his family.
Massimo has education and preservation at the forefront of his tours. He’s dedicated to teaching each of his guests where real truffles come from. He wants his guests to see, smell, and taste true white and black truffles. Not to mention he was one of the first truffle hunters to start this type of experience in Tuscany!
During our hunt Bice found many truffles. We were specially hunting the spring white truffle - something Massimo noted was key to not only finding the most potent and ripe truffles of the season but also to preserve the still growing truffles for hunting in other seasons. Massimo prides himself on the preservation of the natural habitat of the truffle and to carrying on his family legacy of this skill.
Massimo comes from generations of truffle hunters in San Miniato, so you can trust he knows his stuff! On top of all this, he took me hunting on a private estate with stunning panoramic views of the historic town center of San Miniato.
We not only found truffles but harvested wild white asparagus while in the estate’s forrest. We even used these in the lunch his father prepared for me after our hunt.
The lunch experience was equally as special as the hunting tour. Salvatore, Massimo’s father prepared lunch for me in the cozy guest house on the families property. The lunch Salvatore made rivals any Michelin star experience. Everything was seasonal, fresh and of course fresh truffle was shaved over top of each dish!
I couldn’t recommend a tour with Truffle in Tuscany more. 10/10 experience. Massimo made sure to make me feel like I was welcome back to visit my truffle family any time.
Thank you Massimo, Letizia, Salvatore and of course, Bice 🐶!
翻译:我和 Massimo 以及 Bice(Massimo 的松露猎犬)一起度过了一段美妙的松露狩猎时光,这真是一生难得的体验。我参加了松露采摘和家庭午餐之旅。Massimo 根据每位客人的情况定制他的旅行,让他们感觉自己就像是他家人的一部分。
Massimo 将教育和保护放在旅行的首位。他致力于向每位客人讲解真正的松露来自哪里。他希望客人能够看到、闻到和品尝到真正的白松露和黑松露。更不用说他是托斯卡纳最早开始这种体验的松露猎人之一!
在我们狩猎期间,Bice 发现了许多松露。我们专门寻找春季白松露 - Massimo 指出,这不仅是找到当季最有效和最成熟的松露的关键,也是保存仍在生长的松露以供其他季节狩猎的关键。 Massimo 以保护松露的自然栖息地和继承家族的这一技能而自豪。
Massimo 来自圣米尼亚托,祖上几代人都是松露猎人,所以你可以相信他对此了如指掌!除此之外,他还带我去了一个私人庄园打猎,那里可以欣赏到圣米尼亚托历史悠久的市中心的壮丽全景。
我们不仅在庄园的森林里发现了松露,还收获了野生白芦笋。我们甚至在打猎后,他父亲为我准备的午餐中也用到了这些。
午餐体验与狩猎之旅一样特别。Massimo 的父亲 Salvatore 在家族地产上舒适的客房里为我准备了午餐。Salvatore 做的午餐可与任何米其林星级体验相媲美。一切都是应季的、新鲜的,当然,每道菜上面都撒了新鲜的松露!
我强烈推荐托斯卡纳的松露之旅。10/10 的体验。 Massimo 确保让我感到随时都可以回来拜访我的松露家族。
谢谢 Massimo、Letizia、Salvatore,当然还有 Bice 🐶!
