Ohiwa Black Diamonds

The secret to exceptional truffles isn’t found at harvest time. It’s built year after year beneath the surface. 🌱🖤

At Ohiwa Black Diamonds, our truffière has been carefully developed through decades of scientific understanding, land stewardship, and dedication to producing world-class Black Périgord truffles.

From inoculating young trees and maintaining soil health, to monitoring nutrient levels, mineral balance, and the complex relationship between tree roots and truffle spores, every season is shaped by thousands of small decisions.

Why does it matter?

🖤 Consistent quality season after season
🖤 Powerful aroma sought after by chefs and food lovers
🖤 Premium truffles grown with care, patience, and expertise

Our truffles may spend months growing underground, but the work behind them spans decades.

That commitment to the land, the science, and the process is what continues to make Ohiwa Black Diamonds one of New Zealand’s most respected truffières.

Long before a fresh Black Périgord truffle is unearthed, the work begins beneath the soil. 🌱🖤

Every season at Ohiwa Black Diamonds is built on years of careful cultivation, inoculation, land management, and precision care throughout the truffière.

Young oak and hazelnut trees are inoculated with truffle spores at the very beginning of their journey, forming the delicate mycorrhizal relationship between tree roots and truffle that is essential for growth. From there, patience becomes part of the process.

Soil chemistry, mineral balance, moisture, pH levels, tree health, root systems, seasonal pruning, and careful maintenance of the land all play a vital role in producing exceptional truffles year after year. A successful truffière is never accidental. It is constantly nurtured, monitored, and refined over decades.

At Ohiwa, this combination of science, experience, heritage, and Rongoā connection to the land is part of what makes our truffles so highly regarded both in New Zealand and abroad.

As fresh truffle season approaches once again, we’re reminded that every harvest begins years before the truffle itself appears. ✨

The hunt for black truffle begins with expertise that isn’t human. 🖤🐾

As truffle season approaches here in New Zealand, our truffière prepares once again for the arrival of trained truffle dogs, whose sense of smell is powerful enough to detect ripe Black Périgord truffles hidden deep beneath the soil.

Historically, pigs were used to hunt truffles throughout Europe because they are naturally attracted to the aroma compounds found in truffles. But today, dogs have become the preferred choice around the world, including here at Ohiwa Black Diamonds.

Why?

Dogs are gentler on the truffière, easier to train and handle, less likely to damage delicate root systems, and unlike pigs… they’re far less likely to eat the truffle before you can get to it. ✨

A trained truffle dog works with precision, carefully identifying mature truffles at their peak aroma and quality, helping preserve both the land and the harvest itself.

As the New Zealand winter season begins in the coming weeks, the excitement builds for another season of uncovering these rare black diamonds from beneath the earth.
