EUGENIO BREZZI TARTUFI

The story of our company is linked with the story of our family. My father, EUGENIO BREZZI, founder of the family business, discovered truffles in the Twenties when his grandfather Pietro took him to collect pine kernels in the Tuscan Maremma area. In those long days of work, my father's attention was caught by a man roaming the pinewoods with his dog who seemed to be searching for a hidden treasure. Driven by the curiosity of a child and naturally adventurous, he followed the "odd couple" until he saw the dog suddenly stop, start to scrape away the earth, barking happily. Patting the dog, the man bent down and picked up something, both of them looking very pleased with themselves at their find. My father crept nearer and took a good look at the remains of the precious find, saving some small pieces of what turned out to be a precious, fragrant truffle. Wanting to emulate what he had seen as a game to play but also with instinctive insight, he gave these pieces to his dog Lola to smell..
