The online store excels in providing high-quality truffles, with numerous customers highlighting the exceptional flavor and freshness of their products. Many reviews specifically mention the beautiful discoveries of summer truffles and excellent aestivum varieties, reinforcing a sense of satisfaction with the product selection. Delivery is consistently praised for its speed, with several customers noting same-day shipping and packages arriving in perfect condition, which adds to the overall positive experience.
Summer truffles not ripe enough, without smell or taste, other truffle growers wait for them to be ready before selling. You, it's money first

Speed and simple communication with the Plantin team. However, Chronofresh put my package in the mailbox of the Chateau where we were staying, and it took us 2 days to find it because "they didn't have proof of delivery and then no one knew where the package was," despite having called twice, they assured me that it was impossible for it to be in the mailbox, as the "fresh" package must be delivered "in person"; luckily, we eventually found the package, but the ChronoFresh service is really annoying. I had 20 people available on site ready to receive it, but they decided to ignore my clear instructions to "Call upon arrival."

Although this is the 3rd or 4th time I've ordered fresh truffles from Plantin in February, I found the quality of this shipment really inadequate, even mediocre, as if the truffles weren't ripe. They were almost odorless with very little flavor. Really disappointing.

I've already ordered truffles several times online and this time I'm very disappointed, especially as I'd opted for the EXTRA quality. The smell was fine, but the taste was very disappointing considering the price. And the packaging wasn't exceptional either. For the same price or even less, I can find it in shops in Belgium. DON'T FORGET YOUR TYPE OF PRODUCT.
Translated reviews
Response from Plantin
Hello Sir, thank you for taking the time to leave your comment. We are surprised to read that you chose the quality of your truffles knowing that we do not offer the option on our website. The term "extra" simply refers to the visual aspect of the truffle, which must be round and regular enough to be defined as an extra quality truffle. In no way does this affect the taste and fragrance of the fresh truffle. Packaging is the most conventional for fresh truffles. It's all about keeping the product, which is perishable, in suitable packaging for transport, nothing more. Don't forget that we have a customer service team available by e-mail or telephone during store opening hours to answer your questions and find a solution. Sincerely, The Plantin Team

The products are very good, with no surprises. The delivery, unfortunately, again without surprise since Chronopost, catastrophic. Parcel supposed to be delivered at home dropped off at a parcel relay with no explanation, of course at a time when the parcel relay was closed. Chronopost never ceases to innovate in mediocrity.

Hello, we are sorry to hear of your disappointment. As we discussed by e-mail, it seems that the recommendations provided in the guide to using canned truffles have not been respected. Indeed, canned truffles are a product that requires very special attention, whether in terms of the proportion used in a dish or its cooking. A minimum of 10-15g of canned truffle per person is required, and a minimum of 10% for a preparation (butter, sauce, etc.). All this information is detailed in our guide, which is sent in each parcel containing appertized truffles. Should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. The Plantin team

I ordered a 50g Périgord black truffle I was disappointed with the product because apart from the smell the taste was not there no or little flavour As well in a brouillade as in a thin slice on bread I contacted PLANTIN who replied that the truffles were not yet ripe and that the taste might not be there He offered me a voucher worth 50% Usable before the end of February Commercial action I nevertheless give 4 stars for responsiveness and delivery

Hello, Following my order, I received 3 truffles. One of them went straight into the garbage can, rotten and limp. In a box of button mushrooms, I don't care, but here. We shouldn't get into the habit of putting the wrong pieces in mail-order sales. For me, it's over... Have a nice day.

The package arrived but, contrary to the very clear instructions about the recipient, it was delivered to a person in the apartment building where I live, NOT designated by me as recipient or substitute ! I remember that there is privacy ! But the worst thing is that the person to whom my order was left, delivered it to my partner, thus ruining my surprise for Christmas! A total disaster! As for the condition of the contents, I still don't know, because the package will be opened on Christmas Day...at least that!!!
