Uncle Nearest 1856 Premium Whiskey is a unique blend of corn and rye, produced in Tennessee and aged in new American oak barrels. This whiskey undergoes the Lincoln County Process, resulting in a rich, sweet flavor profile. The name Uncle Nearest pays tribute to Nathan Green, the first African-American master distiller on record in the USA. Known as Uncle Nearest to friends and family, Green played a significant role in the whiskey industry as he taught a young Jack Daniel the art of distilling in the mid-1800s. This premium whiskey is created by fifth-generation master blender Victoria Eady Butler, who expertly crafted the recipe to honor her great-great-grandfather's legacy. Aromas of freshly-baled hay, dried grass, peaches, apricots, caramel corn, and maple syrup fill the nose, complemented by notes of peppery spice, caramel, maple syrup, dried fruit, oatmeal-raisin cookies, and vanilla throughout the palate. Currently, Uncle Nearest 1856 Premium Whiskey is produced by two local distilleries as the brand's own whiskey ages. This whiskey offers a unique opportunity to savor a piece of American history while enjoying a high-quality, carefully crafted spirit.
The Lincoln County Process is a special method of filtering whiskey through charcoal, typically sugar maple charcoal, before aging. This process helps to mellow the whiskey and add distinct flavors.
