I am Patrizia:trifolao since three generations

I am Patrizia and I am a Trifolaia and artisanal producer in the province of Alessandria

From Lu Monferrato, at the end of a road overlooking the hills of Monferrato, rises the general quarter of Emozioni dal Bosco...

This project was born out of a love for mushrooms and truffles that come from the areas where I spent my childhood...

A childhood spent collecting and studying the gifts that the forest offered me in order to then be able to process and transform them into what are then none other than the products of Emozioni dal Bosco.

Perhaps it is best to take a few steps back.

Who is the trifulau?

The trifulau is an important figure in Piedmontese tradition, an expert connoisseur of the woods and of the behavior of truffle dogs, which are indispensable in the search for this prized hypogean mushroom.

Before embarking on this journey through woods and nature, I was involved in shipping in Genoa at the port... Genova presso il porto…

Lavoravo come Audit Manager per una grande multinazionaleI was working as an Audit Manager for a large multinational company, but my roots and the scent of the woods resonated in me. radici e il profumo del bosco risuonavano in me.

I come from generations of Trifolai...

From an early age, my maternal grandfather would accompany me to the woods of the Ligurian-Piedmontese Apennines to collect ovules and porcini.

Il nonno paterno, invece, esperto “trifulau” mi portava My paternal grandfather, on the other hand, an expert “trifulau,” used to take me through meadows and woods in search of truffles.. 

At a certain point in my life, I decided to no longer hide my passion, turning it into what would later become emotions from the Forest

I decided to open my truffle processing workshop

In January 2018, my small artisanal truffle and mushroom processing workshop was born...

The goal was to create products that would remain as unaltered and natural as possible...

Creating my first truffle products

Someone once told me: Sometimes the goodness and luxury of good things lies in their simplicity...

And that is exactly how I like to think of my products, processing them as little as possible so that I can then savor all of their flavors and characteristics

Working and processing Truffles is serious business...

My productions vary according to the seasonality of the products, where the raw material is not mixed or disguised by other ingredients.

Each production remains pure in its jar with a recipe created and designed exclusively for it, so as to enhance its taste and flavor.

...that requires care and a lot of passion for raw materials

Whether it is Truffles or mushrooms, the result must always be the same: high quality and great flavor.

When it comes to creams, carpaccios, fresh pasta or products in oil, the fundamental thing is to work in total respect for the raw material..

In order to obtain a qualitatively excellent product only local truffles from the Monferrato area.

Local truffels only

Minimal and pure processing

no use of preservatives or artificial flavors

on a journey from the woods to the table

the workday starts very early in the woods, in the company of my faithful four-legged companion.

While he scouts for truffles. I look around for mushrooms until he calls me back.

When the harvest is over I quickly change and enter my workshop to begin processing the mushrooms and truffles found.

Fulfilling the true mission of Emotions from the Woods

Conveying the passion for the Woods and its fantastic gifts...

When the harvest is over I quickly change and enter my workshop to begin processing the mushrooms and truffles found.

I hope to see you soon around my workshop or in the hills of my beloved Monferrato

Emozioni dal Bosco never stops and is always looking for new recipes and new ideas to enhance the flavors of the Woods...

I'll go back to my workshop and send you a big hug

See you soon
