A naturally infused black truffle oil from Urbani — made with 100% certified organic Italian extra virgin olive oil and real black winter truffles (Tuber melanosporum Vitt.). This is the Unico range, and the name is the point: it uses no synthetic truffle aroma whatsoever. The vast majority of truffle oils on the market — including many expensive ones — rely on bis(methylthio)methane, a synthetic compound manufactured in a laboratory that mimics truffle flavour. It is one-dimensional, chemically harsh, and bears little resemblance to the real thing. Urbani Unico uses only natural truffle extract and actual truffle pieces infused into cold-pressed organic olive oil. You can see the truffle pieces in the bottle.

The result is a finishing oil with genuine depth and complexity — earthy, aromatic, and recognisably truffle — rather than the overpowering, artificial hit that gives truffle oil a bad name. A few drops are enough. Use it as a finishing drizzle over pasta, risotto, eggs, pizza, grilled vegetables, or roasted meat. It also works well stirred into a classic vinaigrette or drizzled over a tagliata.

This is a storecupboard essential for anyone who cooks with truffle. It extends the truffle experience beyond fresh truffle season and delivers real truffle flavour year-round without compromise.
