Mario Pascucci in the early 20's successfully experimented the roasting of coffee beans in tin pots... a new aroma, reminiscent of far away lands, invaded the districts of Montecerignone, an ancient citadel of the Montefeltro Family, a new flavor enriched a centuries-old tradition of regional tastes.
