INSIDE THIS SET:

White Truffle Extra Virgin Olive Oil

This Summer, the idea for our White Truffle Olive Oil took root in the forests of Forcoli, Italy, where my mother and I joined the Savini family, who have been Truffle-hunting these woods for generations. Led by Luca Campinotti and his trio of extraordinary dogs, we spent the morning slipping through dappled light and fallen leaves, watching the dogs circle and scratch, then gently unearth the treasure below. The scent of warm earth and oak leaves, the thrill of discovery — became the genesis of this Olive Oil.

White Truffles are nature’s greatest riddle. Their season is fleeting, their growth a mystery — hidden beneath Oak and Hazelnut trees, found only by instinct, patience, and the keen noses of trained dogs. They refuse cultivation, appearing only where the soil and rain conspire just right. That uncertainty is their magic: the wildness that cannot be tamed.

When married with our Estate Extra Virgin Olive Oil, the result is transcendent — a buttery, nutty, and profoundly umami elixir, where the Truffle’s perfume lingers long after the first drizzle. A single spoonful transforms a dish: silk over Risotto, velvet on roasted Potatoes, gold across soft-scrambled Eggs.

A celebration of craft, curiosity, and the untamable beauty of nature.

Organic Balsamic Vinegar

We fell in love with this special Balsamic for its rich, silky texture and deep, sweet flavor profile. It’s the sort of flavor you can only get from aged Balsamic, made in oak barrels over long Winters. The Trebbiano and Lambrusco grapes are grown organically and hand-selected by Balsamic maker Nicolo Verrini. His passion for Balsamic was passed down by his grandfather, who started making Balsamic Vinegar back in the 60’s. Nicolo is a firm believer that the best Balsamic begins with the best grapes, and his goal is to preserve the beauty that Mother Nature provides. I use it on EVERYTHING — cheese, salads, and sometimes on a spoon in the middle of the night when nobody is watching!

Creamed Manuka Honey

We traveled to New Zealand and harvested the world’s most powerful Mānuka Honey from remote Mount Taranaki. This was a complicated task: we helicoptered our hives onto the native bushlands at the base of the mountain, and let the Bees work. The impossible to reach landscape creates the most potent, highly active Honey independently tested to contain a whopping 830 mg/kg of MGO along with other potent phytocompounds.

The result is the creamiest whipped texture and an earthy, herbaceous flavor. It’s extremely rare — ‘monofloral’ meaning that it comes solely from the nectar of the Mānuka, which blooms just around 4 weeks per year. The creaminess is obtained through a slow churning process with nothing else added, ensuring a longer shelf life without crystallization. Known to support internal immune system. Enjoy by the spoonful or as a face mask for rich hydration and cleansing.
