Forthave Spirits, known for their thoughtful, botanical-driven liqueurs, brings a fresh yet deeply traditional take on Nocino with Black, their small-batch green walnut liqueur. Inspired by old-world recipes but crafted with a meticulous, natural approach, this version is infused with unripe walnuts and a mix of spices, then aged to develop its deep, aromatic complexity. Unlike heavier, overly sweet interpretations, Forthave’s Nocino is lifted and layered, offering both richness and a refined balance.

Dark roasted nuts, cinnamon, and clove mingle with bitter cacao, black tea, and a hint of citrus peel. The texture is velvety but not syrupy, finishing long with a gentle warmth that lingers between herbal and sweet. Perfect as a digestif, drizzled over ice cream, or mixed into an inventive cocktail, this is a liqueur that rewards slow sipping and creative pairings. A must-try for lovers of amari and complex, spice-laden spirits.
