Refills can be purchased at Downton Brewery, Dark Revolution Brewery (Old Sarum Airfield), Healthy Living (Devizes) & Regent Tailoring in Salisbury.

This is our first liqueur using hand picked green walnuts from the three beautiful walnut trees growing behind the distillery and a young tree in our small botanical garden. Walnuts have been used in spirits for many years, but the Italians are famous for their Nocino.

We slice the walnuts into quarters, macerate them with our blend of spices for 6 months, before filtering and sweetening with organic maple syrup. It is left for another 6 months to mature before bottling. 

It's spicy, sweet, and slightly bitter, and delicious served drizzled over vanilla ice cream, or served on its own as an aperitif. It makes an excellent Espresso Martini or Chocolate Martini.

Pair with cheese after dinner.

  • Bottle size 350ml @34% ABV
  • Macerated and bottled at Downton Distillery
  • Notes of walnut, nutmeg, coffee, maple.
  • 50 bottles have been made

TRIVIA FACT

GREEN WALNUTS

Green walnuts have a distinct flavor that is quite different from mature walnuts. They are crisp and slightly tart, with a subtle bitterness and herbal undertones. This unique flavor profile makes them a prized ingredient in culinary applications, particularly in certain traditional dishes and beverages.
