Schiaccianoci (Nutcracker) is an interpretation of the classic walnut liqueur spread
throughout Italy, which in this case is inspired by Irpinia and family traditions.
Made with the indications of an ancient recipe book, it is characterized by the addition
of Taurasi wine to the classic infusion of walnut, spice and flowers; once the
sugar and the alcohol are amalgamated, it is aged in French oak barrels for at least
two years.
Meditation liqueur, excellent to taste at the end of the meal accompanied by miniature
pastries and cream based desserts; on the precious bottle, the Epicurean invitation
of Horace: ”Stop any hesitation and put aside your desire for income; mix, as
long as it is possible, a bit of scapigliatura with the wise thoughts; on some occasions,
frolic is so sweet”.
Composition: infusion of walnut husk, herbs, flowers, fruit and spices; Taurasi
wine (aged in barriques for about six years); alcohol; sugar.
