Filling out a delayed review from a 2019 purchase. This is exactly what you'd think. Walnut liquor with walnut tannins. I'm sure there are mixed drink usages for it that are amazing but don't drink it straight too often.
About this bottle
Ohio-based Watershed Distillery first started making Nocino in 2014 after a local physician named Charlie convinced them to try his homemade version. Unripe black walnuts from Ohio are used in its creation along with sugar and spices. Released annually in small batches so ABV will vary.

A really nice nose filled with Christmas spice cookies. A really nice sweet body. Full of some really nice gingerbread notes, mixed with clove. Really smooth, with a hint of spice at the end.
Best nocino I’ve had. Deep dark well rounded. Thick amber, burnt caramel toffee, so good. Going to stay in the whiskey locker for a long time. Bottle number 020360. Excellent!
After dinner beverage. A digestive. Megan enjoys it.
Sweet, spicy, flavorful. Christmas in a bottle.
Really a great Nocino
