Faccia Brutto Nocino Liqueur

A seasonal favorite! Green (young) walnuts are hand harvested in the PNW and delivered overnight. Each nut is cut in half and macerated with eight other ingredients, including citrus peel, allspice, vanilla, and cocoa nibs. They strain and proof to 40% abv and barrel age for 10 to 12 months. During this time, the flavors mellow and concentrate to reveal a very nuanced and balanced tincture. This rendition of the classic nocino is a less spice-forward, more complex, and less cloyingly sweet tipple. Imagine that maple syrup and vanilla extract had a baby… that’s this nocino.
