Umami: Truffles ft. Battles

Servo

UMAMI returns, just in time for truffle season! Following on from our sold out second edition highlighting the humble tomato, for volume III we've set our sights on the most decadent ingredient of all - the famed truffle.

Truffles, the prized fungi of the culinary world, are famed for their intense, savory taste. This unique depth comes from a quality known as umami, the fifth taste alongside sweet, salty, sour, and bitter.

Truffles boast high levels of glutamate, a natural compound that triggers the umami receptors on your tongue. This translates to an explosion of savory richness that complements other flavors and elevates simple dishes to gourmet heights. Imagine earthy, almost nutty undertones mingling with a deep, musky aroma. That's the magic of umami in truffles.

What's more each course will be lovingly paired with wines by Battles - a young duo producing thought provoking wines from vineyards across the south-west. This is only the second vintage under their own label, but they're quickly developing a strong following - for good reason. Their characterful wines that show poise and complexity, working with left of center and classic varietals - always creating wines which reflect the great vineyards and regions in which they are grown.

Whether you're a truffle aficionado or just an adventurous gourmand, we invite you to join us for this unmissable exploration of the deep, dark, umami intensity of truffles.
