Alban,

I haven't had walnut liqueur, though I've tried
hazelnut. My memory is fuzzy on the acorn stuff (maybe
that's its own testament!), but from what I can
remember, I think only its lingering taste reminded me
of hazelnut. Its first impressions were that it was
like nothing else I'd ever had, and that it was very
strong - in both alcohol and flavor, like maybe it
kept some of the tannins from the unprocessed nut
meat. It was very dark in color.

Sounds like we've got more acorn experimenting in the
works!

Cheers!
 - Jennifer
