Today we are going to talk about the truffle hunters, a trade difficult, sacrificial and requiring a high specialization of which increasingly are less people that are dedicated to him and however the demand for this product does not fall but that due to the importance of the truffle especially in Haute cuisine, it is a product that seeks its maximum quality.
