Reflecting James and Sierra Clark’s ongoing commitment to showcasing California’s agricultural bounty, Brucato Spring Almond Liqueur features a sole botanical of green almonds grown in the state’s Central Valley. California is the world’s leading almond producer, and this liqueur (the first release in Brucato’s small batch Experimental Series) showcases young almonds in a bright and vegetal counterpoint to classic baking-spice-forward nocinos.

Tasting Notes

Brucato Spring Almond is the first release in the Brucato Experimental Series, a collection conceived to allow the Brucato team further exploration of California’s rich botanical landscape. These small-batch love letters to the agriculture of The Golden State are not likely to be repeated, so don’t sleep on these releases, which are slated to occur only a few times a year.
