Truffe Noire du Périgord Fraîche Extra is a fresh Périgord black truffle of the species Tuber melanosporum, offered by the French estate Truffière des Mérigots, located in Gabillou, Dordogne. The Extra designation refers to a selection of whole, rounded truffles without visible defects.

The truffles are sold freshly harvested, washed, and sorted. Each is inspected using canifage, a technique involving a small surface cut to assess maturity and condition. The harvesting season for this species runs approximately from mid-November to mid-March.

It is characterized by a complex, refined, and intense aroma. Its fragrance is particularly expressive when combined with fats, such as butter, which capture and carry it throughout the dish. It is best added to warm dishes toward the end of cooking to preserve its aromatic character.
