So I have recently made up a batch of Nocino/vin de noix that is just coming up to maturity. Bitterness is gone, flavors are smooth and mellow, and the nuttiness of the walnuts is starting to shine through. And it only took a year of aging! :D
Seriously potent though, as I used 190 proof everclear. I'd post some pics, but since photobucket has pulled an HK and basically told their customers they hate them, no can do.
Also made up a batch of limoncello.... That only took about 30 days. time to make another, since the last bottle is in the freezer.
