The common definition of a liqueur is an alcoholic beverage (typically brandy) flavored with fruit, spices, nuts, herbs, or seeds. Yes, our Nostalgie Walnut Liqueur fits this description on a basic level but we never do basic. We build this liqueur piece by piece with only pure, natural flavors we make and extract ourselves. The black walnuts are hand-harvested, and soaked in our own 12-year-old Brandy for two years – creating a layered, complex extraction to which we add our family’s secret blend of herbs and spices to complete the picture.

Mostly straight. But enjoyable in so many ways – drizzle over vanilla ice cream, freshly baked chocolate brownies, or pumpkin pie, or simply add a shot to your Espresso. It’s a versatile liqueur so let your imagination run wild.

Yes, and we recommend it neat, no ice. We believe you want to taste the purity of our hand-crafted spirits and extracts, which is why every one of our products are distilled to be enjoyed on their own, including our Nostalgie Black Walnut Liqueur. After all, our belief is that only if it tastes good on its own, does it deserve to be used in a recipe or a cocktail.
