THE STORY OF MONACI DELLE TERRE NERE TOLD BY GUIDO COFFA

From the Augustinian Monks of the 17th century

“It was this place which chose me! I ‘ve only brought its hidden beauty to light.”

"I wanted a home on Mount Etna, a place where I could enjoy the "third slice" of my life in the company of good wine and an amazing countryside. On my very first day of “quest, I came across an old run-down villa immersed in pure beauty and lots of brambles. We definitely hit it off!"
