Great product, but use quickly...5
I really enjoyed this product in my little experiment to find out what truffles taste like. It arrived quickly and well refrigerated. The taste sensation (first on toast points) was great. But I found that the flavor went "off" after just a few days in the fridge, so if I order it again, I will either plan to use it quickly or freeze it between usages instead of just refrigerating it.

I am a complete novice on gourmet foods, my experience with truffle butter may not apply to anyone else...Larry.

Not as expected...1
Having tried and loved the D'Artangnan white truffle butter, I bought the black for a risotto. Not sure if i got a bad batch, but I found NO truffle flavor or aroma whatsoever. I see truffle looking bits but it tastes like butter with soy sauce. Quite disappointing.

Must Have Gotten A Bad Batch1
This was not at all what I expected. I don't know if that batch I got was old or what, but it did not have truffle flavor! I could see the truffle in the butter, but there was none of that intense earthy aroma. Undeterred, I proceeded to use it to season my Thanksgiving turkey. I was so disappointed. Because I was depending on the butter almost exclusively for flavor, the turkey was bland.

I ended up using the truffle and salt mix I purchased from Williams-Sonoma at the table. This was not the stellar meal I had planned. For Christmas, I used the same technique on cornish hens. This time, I used shelf-stable truffle butter from Williams-Sonoma. The birds were outstanding.
