PERSISTENCES FROM THE ANCIENT: ABBEY OF S. FELICE DI NARCO AND AROMA OF SAFFRON

A walk through time through the sacred woods that have made the lands of San Benedetto unique places is the 1190 abbey dedicated to Saints Felice and Mauro portrayed to defeat the dragon in the beautiful Romanesque facade that stands out against the dazzling green of the woods. In the same place of the spirit, the aroma of the ancient releases its wonderful essence as can be experienced in the processing phases of the Roman “crocomagma” at the “Saffron and surroundings” farmhouse. Saffron, which for its aroma, properties and colors creates a charm to be told, has become the emblem of this company.
Taken from a flower that is immediately recognized for its beauty, since ancient times saffron was symbolically linked to spiritual wealth. At the farm it will be possible to participate in the harvest and processing “from field to table” which will end with the tasting of the menu, composed as follows: crostini with crescenza and burnet, trumpet pumpkin and chives, savory pie with wild herbs, spelled soup bisque with saffron and apple pie with saffron.
