Nocino Making Workshop

Homemade nocino is traditional treat in Italy and with the abundant walnut trees of California your own nocino should be new tradition at your holiday table. Our nocino workshop is designed to help get you kickstarted with your nocino production.

In the workshop we will start by harvesting the green walnuts from our English walnut tree and then return to the distillery where you will select a barrel strength (~60% abv) apple brandy from a selection of options that were specially selected for this workshop. We will also provide you with a collection of traditional spices, herbs, and citrus to add to your nocino. At the end of the event you’ll be sent home with your own newborn nocino and instructions for its care and feeding and a one liter barrel to age the nocino and dispense it when its ready!
