History

Jovis glans

Highly nutritious walnuts were a familiar delicacy to the ancient Romans, who loved to add them to their traditional dishes. They called them Jovis glans, after the god Jupiter, to whom they dedicated the walnut tree.

With the passage of time, a honey-golden oil began to be pressed from these nuts, which, thanks to its easy absorption and high content of valuable antioxidants, it was also used in the cosmetics industry.
