The truffle has different prices depending on the type, season, origin and its size. The white truffle is the most valuable, undoubtedly, and as such, it is reserved a price to say the least striking, to be a product of fungal origin... For example, in the year 2017, due to the little rains and drought, the price reached 6000 € per kg, as documented by Coldiretti. In 2018, however, its value has been reduced as it has rained in abundance and this has caused a thriving appearance of truffles, which have however lowered the price by 30% compared to the average, resulting in 2100 € per kg.

As for the various types, in general these are the average prices:

White truffle from 3000 € to 4000 € per kg

Black truffle from 350 € to 800 € per kg

Bianchetto truffle from 100 € to 250 € per kg

Smooth black truffle from 200 € to 500 € per kg

Interesting to note that there are real "bags" in which the truffles are evaluated, as for example the one referred to the white truffle of Alba.
