Uncle Nearest 1856

Uncle Nearest 1856 builds on the legacy of Nathan Green with a bolder, higher proof whiskey that continues to win awards and acclaim. The distillery was the first in the US to be named after an African American and is led by a majority female executive team, breaking new ground in the industry.

This expression delivers depth and complexity, with notes of brown sugar, rich oak, black pepper and cinnamon. It’s a robust Tennessee whiskey that balances sweetness with a punch of spice and a long finish.
