Noos Nocino

The artificial word NOOS derives from the word “Nos”, which means “walnut” in Ticino dialect. On a mystical night around the summer solstice, the walnuts used for production, still unripe at this time, are harvested barefoot by women. So says the legend, and this is exactly how it is done at the Branchi Manufacture. Hand‑cut, the walnuts are then marinated in the finest Ticino grappa together with various spices and Swiss sugar and left out in the elements for 40 nights of maceration. The bottling also takes place exclusively at night. As in the past, NOOS manages to capture the mystical night energy in the bottle
