If what you seek every morning is flavor, mark your calendar for a trip to Tuscany next fall: here, you’ll find a true delight for the palate!

In autumn, the small village of San Miniato transforms into an open-air tasting laboratory, where local traditions blend with the charm of the Tuscan landscape.

Entering the historic center of San Miniato, in the province of Pisa, feels like stepping into an outdoor museum. The small, enchanting Tuscan village immediately impresses with its Rocca, which dominates the town and showcases its entire artistic heritage. But San Miniato also holds the precious “black gold” of Tuscan cuisine: white truffle. Thus, in November, this little Tuscan town transforms into an open-air tasting laboratory with the White Truffle Market Exhibition.

Timeless Flavors
A celebration of Tuscany’s exquisite treasure that attracts visitors each year eager to discover the authentic flavors of the region. The event takes place in the charming medieval village in the province of Pisa, where local traditions blend with the beauty of the Tuscan landscape. Participants have the opportunity to taste white truffle in all its forms, discover traditional recipes, and immerse themselves in the unique atmosphere of an event that combines gastronomy, culture, and history. An unforgettable experience among the hills of San Miniato, where authentic taste and local traditions allow visitors to feel part of a timeless Tuscany.
