Watershed Distillery’s Barrel Strength Fall Finishing Series – Nocino Barrel is a bold, limited-release straight bourbon finished in barrels that previously held nocino, a traditional green walnut liqueur.

Aged 6 years before finishing, this bourbon is bottled at full barrel strength, delivering intense depth, dark sweetness, and warming spice. The nocino barrel influence adds layers of walnut, baking spice, and herbal complexity while preserving the structure and richness of Watershed’s straight bourbon base.

Each batch is produced in limited quantities and clearly labeled, making this a standout seasonal release for collectors and high-proof bourbon enthusiasts.
