Magic truffles Amsterdam, scientifically referred to as sclerotia, are the underground formations of certain species of fungi. While often associated with magic mushrooms, truffles differ in that they grow beneath the soil, storing nutrients for the fungus. Both truffles and mushrooms contain psilocybin and psilocin, the psychoactive compounds responsible for inducing hallucinogenic effects.

The legal status of magic truffles in the Netherlands is a result of a specific distinction made in Dutch drug policy. In 2008, the government banned the sale of magic mushrooms, responding to concerns about their safety. However, because magic truffles are a different part of the same fungi, they were not included in this ban. This legal loophole allows smart shops in Amsterdam to continue selling magic truffles, making the city a popular destination for those seeking a legal psychedelic experience.
