Greatest videos on TH-cam Bruce! “This is what makes it fun. The f&@k ups” 😂 We had a black walnut tree at our old home place. Every year I would go out there and “stomp” them to crush the hulls so they would dry out and then put the nuts in 5 gallon buckets. We had new floor covering put down one year and I sat my boots on it after crushing the walnuts. Left two perfectly boot shaped brown stains. My wife was thrilled! So, I had to laugh at your black hands story 😅
Bruce you did a fantastic job 👍 Just so people know, the original Nocino is from Northern Italy. As such the traditional ingredients would be from that area. Ie. Honey for the sugar, and grapa at pot still strength around 75% ABV (then add water until you like the way it taste) Also: Light does not really make a difference when making liqueurs or amari. People say it does but trust me I’ve done it both ways, and there is no difference. If you leave it sitting in the sun for months… maybe. But you can leave it on your bar near a window and you won’t see any difference compared to darkness. In Italy they usually leave it in the hot sun for a few days to a few weeks with no problem.
I appreciate the valuable information you have shared. I can't wait for the opportunity to taste the final result once it has further aged and the tannins have softened. It'll be a great way to preserve the memories of last summer. Cheers!
Now I’m eyeing our 9 (odd is lucky) black walnut trees knowing what I’ll do next year. I do have a nocino from a distillery in British Columbia (Woods Spirit Co) so ready for the next cocktail 😋
Fabulous job Bruce!! This amazing Nocino Walnut Liqueur will be so damn delicious! I have never seen it made and I am thrilled to be able to see this explanation!! I am visual and love seeing demonstrations!! You rock Bruce!! I am thinking of cocktails to try with Nocino Walnut Liqueur and it could be sipped on its own I bet! D you prefer this liqueur in cocktails or on its own? Cheers Bruce!! Love your videos so much!! 🙂
Thank you for your kind comment. I'm thrilled to have the opportunity to experiment with Nocino in a cocktail or two. Also, I anticipate that it will be great to enjoy on its own once it has aged and the tannins have mellowed. I think by Christmas time, I'll have and share a fantastic cocktail ready to savour.
@@BarTalkCocktails You are so welcome Bruce!! By Christmas you will be able to make some absolutely delicious cocktails and sip this lovely liqueur on its own!! Sounds amazing!! I hope you are having a lovely weekend!! Cheers Bruce!! 🙂
Thanks Bruce! At last a use for the black walnut tree in my yard(besides squirrel food).
Thanks for tuning in!

Fall is fast approaching and you know what that means! Halloween videos 😂
You know it!
Great one! I've hope you test Grapa
Great suggestion!
Not only do walnut hulls stain; they are traditionally used as a brown dye.
They are indeed! Thanks for tuning in!
Happy Negroni week! 🥃
Hope you had a great one!
Thanks Bruce! May I suggest a Walnut Manhattan? Found one in Difford's and I am going to have one tonight.
Great suggestion!
Yay! New video! Walnut liqueur sounds so good! I’ve made so many of the drinks you present for my family, thanks Bartender Bruce!
Glad to hear it!! Cheers to you all.
