The story of Tesori del Matese is a beautiful tale of family passion, local tradition, and one of Italy's most prized products: the truffle..
It all began in 1993 in Molise, one of the smallest regions in Italy but incredibly generous with natural treasures. Here, at the foot of the Matese massif, four siblings of the De Gregorio family—Gino, Antonio, Carmelina, and Mary—decided to turn what was already a deep love into a business: the search for, harvesting, and valorizing the truffles and mushrooms that their land offers in abundance..
Molise, in fact, contributes over 40% of Italy's national truffle production, thanks to its pristine forests, far from intensive agriculture, pesticides, and chemical fertilizers. ANDIt is precisely from this almost pristine environment that the idea of Tesori del Matese was born: not only to collect fresh truffles (white, black, summer, burgundy...), but to transform them into top-quality products that could bring the authentic flavor of the area to the whole world..
From a small family business, over 30 years and across two generations, the company has become a true international reference in the truffle and mushroom sector. Today, Tesori del Matese:
Manages over 80 hectares of family-owned woodland (including 20 hectares dedicated to controlled and sustainable truffle grounds).
It maintains close and trusting relationships with local trifolau (truffle hunters).
It produces preserves, sauces, creams, flavored oils, truffle butter, truffle honey, carpaccio, fresh truffles, and much more.
It is present in the kitchens of major restaurants, prestigious chains (such as several Soho House locations worldwide), and the finest international gourmet shops.
It has obtained important certifications (FSSC 22000, IFS, Kosher, organic) that guarantee traceability, food safety, and environmental respect.
The name itself, Tesori del Matese, is no coincidence: for the De Gregorio family, truffles (and porcini mushrooms, chanterelles, and chanterelles, among others) are truly "treasures of the earth," a precious gift to be preserved, crafted, and shared with those who love great food. Italian cuisine..
In short: from a family passion for their region, a name of excellence was born that today brings the unmistakable aroma and flavor of Molise to tables around the world. A classic example of how the lesser-known, more authentic Italy can produce extraordinary products when there's love, expertise, and respect for nature.
