Description

Uncle Nearest 1856 Premium Bourbon Whiskey pays homage to Nathan "Nearest" Green, the first African-American master distiller and the man credited with perfecting the Lincoln County Process, a signature method of filtering whiskey through sugar maple charcoal.

Smooth, bold, and layered with complex flavors, Uncle Nearest 1856 is a celebration of tradition and innovation, honoring a legacy that continues to shape American whiskey.
