Press Release 2024
The Asheville Truffle Experience will rock your tastebuds from Friday through Sunday, February 2nd through 4th, 2024, with multiple mouth-watering sessions in beautiful downtown Asheville and environs. Guests will plunge into the mystery of this ultra-prized ingredient, of which multiple species exist—traditionally hailing from the deep, dark woods of France, Italy and Spain, but also cultivated across the States, particularly in the northwest and southeast.
The event will kick off on Friday the 2nd, with a welcome session at The Market Place (recently nominated for a James Beard award!) featuring mouth-watering truffled appetizers and celebratory beverages, and a chance to mingle and share stories with other truffle aficionados.
Saturday morning the 3rd will begin with an educational session, on the campus of Warren Wilson College, for those who wish to learn more about all aspects of truffles, from the planting to the varieties to the harvesting and marketing, in company of multiple experts in the field.
Saturday afternoon will feature a tour of a truffle orchard, also on the campus of Warren Wilson College, and a chance to see Eva the truffle dog in action while observing the various stages of a truffle orchard nearing productivity.
On Saturday evening, guests will be delighted with a selection of provocative dishes during an especially decadent wine-paired Truffle Extravaganza, at The Market Place.
Sunday will feature a hands-on session in cooking with truffles at the A-B Tech Culinary Campus, exploring the best ingredients and techniques for capturing the truffle's unique aromas and bringing them to the palate.
This will be followed by a truffled luncheon, at star chef Katie Button's La Bodega.
Pricing is available for the entire weekend or à la carte.
Visit www.ashevilletruffle.com for further details, or contact Susi Gott Séguret at 828-301-2792.
Covid protocol: Please test yourself before attending, and stay home if you have any symptoms or evidence of positivity.
Note: Haywood Park Hotel is offering a 10% discount to ATE attendees, as long as rooms are available. Call the front desk ((828-252-2522) and ask for the truffle discount.
