Did you know that one of the world’s most prestigious truffle companies has a flagship presence right here in New York City? For more than 170 years, the Urbani family has set the global standard for sourcing and sharing Italy’s most coveted culinary treasure. Now, for the first time, they’re opening their doors for an immersive, one-of-a-kind experience where you’ll get up close and personal with truffles — from classroom insight to hands-on discovery and, of course, tasting.

Join New York Adventure Club for an exclusive evening inside The Urbani Truffle Lab NYC, where expert storytelling, interactive exploration, and curated tastings reveal the extraordinary world of truffles.

Led by the expert team at Urbani Truffles — stewards of a seven-generation Italian truffle legacy and leaders in the global truffle industry — our intimate after-hours experience will include:


  • An expert-led deep dive into truffles — what they are, how they’re foraged, and why specific regions of Italy produce distinct varieties
  • The fascinating history and global rise of truffles — from ancient Mediterranean lore and truffle hunters to modern cultivation efforts and today’s international market
  • A guided tasting of truffle-infused bites and chocolates, exploring aroma, flavor intensity, and the craftsmanship behind preserving this delicate ingredient
  • A hands-on examination of fresh truffles covering import and storage logistics, grading and sizing standards, quality testing through aroma and firmness, cleaning techniques, and proper shaving methods
  • A live truffle shaving demonstration highlighting how to properly slice and serve fresh truffles over crostini (which you’ll enjoy moments later)
  • The opportunity to browse the Urbani Truffles store with a special discount, featuring a curated selection of truffle products including oils, snacks, and specialty items


Whether you’re newly truffle-curious or well on your way to connoisseur status, you’ll leave with a deeper appreciation for one of the culinary world’s most celebrated ingredients.

See you there!
