Origin of raw materials
The tradition of transforming nuts into artisanal liqueurs runs deep in Portuguese culture, and Walnut Liqueur is one of the most authentic examples of this heritage.
Portuguese Walnut
Crafted from carefully selected Portuguese walnuts, this liqueur combines ancestral know-how with the natural richness of our land, creating a drink of intense and unmistakable flavor.
The walnuts used in its production come mainly from the Trás-os-Montes region, where the climate and fertile soils provide walnut trees with fruit of outstanding quality. With their hard shell and oily flesh, these walnuts stand out for their slightly sweet taste and characteristic nutty notes, which are further enhanced during maturation in alcohol and sugar. To enrich the experience even more, subtle touches of cinnamon and clove are added—spices with a long-standing connection to Portuguese history, introduced during the Age of Discoveries and since then woven into our culinary tradition.
This artisanal process results in a liqueur that not only preserves the authentic character of the walnut but also elevates it, creating a balanced and aromatic drink that combines the smoothness of nuts with the intensity of spices.
Walnut Liqueur is a true celebration of Portuguese identity - an encounter between tradition, quality, and flavor that transforms every sip into a return to the roots of our culture.
