BC Spirits "Spirit a Day" #162 - Ampersand Nocino!

DISTILLERY NOTES

“We collected green walnuts this summer from friends in the valley and steeped them in our pure spirit. It turns this amazing deep walnut colour and lends an amazing aroma. Then we’ve spiced it with cinnamon, allspice, and fresh lemon peel and aged it for at least eighty days” - co-founder & head distiller Jeremy Schacht
