Hidden between the sea and the mountains of Liguria is a village that has been shaped by time and sculpted by the wind: Vernazza, one of the most precious treasures of the Cinque Terre. Here, where the waves gently lap against the rocks and the colorful houses are reflected in the crystal-clear water, every corner tells stories of a past that is still alive through its inhabitants. In this fascinating place, in the silent shadow of the Black Moon, Paolo and Tiziana found themselves surrounded by a mysterious and evocative aura. This was the inspiration for the creation of Verna, an olfactory homage that captures the most authentic soul of this timeless village. When the sky is shrouded in darkness and the moon disappears in a circle of shadow, the Black Moon emerges, symbolizing rebirth and the search for new horizons. During a summer stroll in Vernazza, as the village lay in the stillness of the evening, Paolo and Tiziana paused in the small square by the harbor, where the scent of the sea mingled with that of the earth and every alleyway seemed to hold an ancient secret. The wind, full of stories and traditions, blew like an omen and led the two siblings to a new creation. Thus Verna was born, a tribute to the power of new beginnings, a celebration of the authentic essence of Vernazza and the transformative energy of the Black Moon.
