 Truffle Oil? Well, at least the oil is real.Jan 12, 2010
I'm flabbergasted by the glowing reviews that "truffle oil" is receiving on Amazon! Those of you espousing a desire to drizzle this stuff on your food might be sorely disappointed to learn that the truffle flavor in those tiny $17 bottles of "truffle oil" are made in a laboratory. There's not a molecule of actual truffle in them. It's a sinful shame that's perpetuated despite being outed a few years ago in an enlightening New York Times article called "Hocus-Pocus, and a Beaker of Truffles." Read it and weep: http://bit.ly/2MRmyQ
And if you see "truffle oil" advertised on the menu somewhere, you might ask if they're using any other artificial flavorings in their dishes...

 Inferior productSep 01, 2009
I've had several brands of truffle oil, and think that this one is probably one of the worst. Poor quality oil, very bland, hardly any aroma at all. Won't be buying this one again...

No truffle taste, a little truffle aroma.Mar 18, 2009
Maybe this company has very poor quality control where some batches are wonderful and others are just olive oil with a whiff of truffle but our 2 bottles had no truffle flavor at all. Very disappointed. I will buy other brands next time.

 Great Gourmet FindJan 19, 2009
At a local restaurant, they serve truffle butter. I loved it so much that I was curious to experiment with truffle flavors at home. I had read a lot of reviews on the butter being melted or settled by the time it arrived so decided to purchased the Urbani truffle oil to make my own. The package was delivered earlier than the expected delivery date. The bottle was much smaller than I had expected, but after reading recipes, you don't really use that much to get the flavor. I have made truffle mashed potatoes and truffle butter. As a novice chef, I am pleased with my purchase.

It is olive oil and "Truffle Aroma"Jan 09, 2009
Just so that you know what you are buying - the ingredients on the back are clearly shown to be olive oil and "truffle aroma". As another reviewer said - this is olive oil and chemicals. It's very disappointing to have paid this much for a wee little bottle (and it is wee!) of olive oil and chemicals.
