Casa Arrigo

Linguaglossa is a town and comune in the Metropolitan City of Catania in Sicily, located on the northern side of Mount Etna where there is also a ski resort with view on the Ionian Sea. It was founded on a lava stream in 1566. The name literally means 'Tongue Tongue', with lingua and γλῶσσα being respectively the Latin and Greek words for 'tongue', but actually derives from lingua grossa, short for grossa lingua di lava 'a big tongue of lava'. Linguaglossa is one of the most renowned destinations in the Etna region, celebrated for its exceptional wine production, Michelin-starred dining experiences, and rich gastronomic culture. Nestled on the northern slopes of Mount Etna, it has become a landmark for food and wine enthusiasts seeking an authentic expression of Sicily’s culinary heritage.
