A HIDDEN DREAM RECOVERED FROM THE 18th CENTURY

The story of Spirit of Truffles begins in 1735 when a couple of enterprising cousins, Giuseppe della Vitterra and Louis-Antoine Vernisse, built a small distillery on the Ligurian Riviera. The two families dedicated themselves with passion to the production of exotic liqueurs of excellent quality.
 

Already in the 18th century, the cousins hypothesized the production of a spirit that involved the infusion of white truffles, but the ambitious recipe remained just a dream for centuries.
