How is Russet ratafia made?

Russet ratafia is made following a traditional process that stands out for the use of green nuts, known as russets. First, the nuts are harvested while they are still green, and their outer shell is removed. The nuts are then macerated in quality schnapps or brandy along with a combination of selected herbs, spices, and fruits. The maceration can last several weeks or months, allowing the flavors to meld and develop. During this time, the green walnuts contribute their characteristic bitter and complex flavor to the ratafia. At the end of the maceration, the mixture is filtered, and sugar or honey is added to balance the flavors and provide a touch of sweetness.

 

The result is a Russet ratafia with a distinctive flavor, where green walnuts play a prominent role in its complexity and bitterness.
