The coffee infusion creates a distinct aroma and a lingering finish.

How to keep the rest
To maintain their quality, store any remaining truffles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Keep them in their original packaging or an airtight container to preserve freshness and prevent them from absorbing odors. Avoid refrigerating them, as this can alter their texture.
