Quality assessment

Caveats

Own domain (truffleboys.com) independently confirms the exact detail given on camera in Bon Appetit's Antico Nuovo video -- purveyors 'Rocky and Lerner from Truffle Boys' state 'These are from Abruzzo, Italy' re: truffles; the site's own price list separately lists 'Summer Black Truffles Tuber Aestivum, Origins: Abruzzo, Italy (April-August)', matching verbatim. NAME-COLLISION CHECK: this is NOT 'Truffle Boy' (singular) -- Ian Purkayastha, founder of Regalis Foods (NYC), author of a memoir titled 'Truffle Boy.' Different company name, different city, different founder/product mix (Regalis is a much larger specialty-ingredients company); ruled out as a distinct, unrelated entity before this row was written.

Wholesale purveyor of truffles, caviar, foie gras, and other specialty foods, operating as TBGC Inc. out of Chino Hills, CA. Sources fresh truffles from multiple origins (summer black truffles/Tuber Aestivum from Abruzzo, Italy; winter black Perigords/Tuber Melanosporum from Biobio, Chile) and caviar re-routed via China due to the Russian import embargo. Not a grower -- an import/purveyor business.
