Uncle Nearest 1856 Premium Tennessee Whiskey

Special features: This premium Tennessee whiskey honors the legend Nearest Green, the first known African American master distiller. The distillery uses the traditional “Lincoln County Process,” where the whiskey is filtered through maple charcoal – a crucial step that ensures the characteristically smooth and pure taste. Since 2021, the distillery has exclusively worked with its own stocks, without outside purchases. The bottlings are produced under the guidance of Victoria Eady Butler, a descendant of Nearest Green.

Tasting Notes:

  • Nose: Notes of butterscotch, vanilla, and coconut with a subtle sweetness.
  • Palate: Soft and balanced, with hints of caramel, cinnamon, and wood spices.
  • Finish: Long-lasting, mild, and warming with a touch of dark chocolate.

Distillery/Bottler: The Nearest Green Distillery was founded in 2017 to preserve the legacy of Nearest Green, who is considered the first African American master distiller before the abolition of slavery in Tennessee. The distillery strictly follows traditional methods without additives and has quickly established itself as one of the most innovative whiskey brands in the USA. The combination of history, craftsmanship, and modern distillation makes Uncle Nearest a special reference in the field of Tennessee whiskey.
