On the night of Saint John, which corresponded to the summer solstice, women disappeared in the darkness of the countryside and gathered under the walnut tree. The most expert woman, barefoot, climbed on the ladder and chose the most intact nuts, touched them softly to keep the dew of the night, and she put them in the basket.  In the meantime, some bonfires were switched in the courtyard and the hull walnuts were deposited on the ground, on empty juta bags, in order to receive again the night dew, considered the panacea of all evils.  The Nocino di Modena Toschi, with distinctive bouquet and intense and unmistakable flavor, is ideal for serving smooth, at room temperature, at the end of the meal.
