About Uncle Nearest Single Barrel Premium Whiskey

Nathan "Nearest" Green was one of the finest whiskey makers in the world and the first African American master distiller on record in the US. It's likely that he was the one who taught Jack Daniel how to distill. Inspired by Green's story, Uncle Nearest crafts premium whiskey at the Nearest Green Distillery in Tennessee. Launched in 2017, the brand is the fastest-growing American whiskey in US history. Uncle Nearest Single Barrel Premium Whiskey is crafted by fifth-generation Master Blender Victoria Eady Butler. Matured in new American oak for at least 11 years, only 1% of Uncle Nearest barrels get selected for single-barrel releases. Each of these casks is hand-picked by the founders and bottled at a cask strength of at least 108 proof after being triple-filtered.

About Uncle Nearest

Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey is inspired by one of the best whiskey makers the world never knew, the first African-American master distiller on record in the United States, Nathan "Nearest" Green. A slave until Emancipation and the end of the Civil War, Green was likely the one who taught Jack Daniel how to distill.

Owned entirely by Uncle Nearest, Inc., The Uncle Nearest line includes a Premium Aged blend of 8-10YO, and 11YO Barrel Proof Single Barrel, and debuting at Tales of the Cocktail: a Small Batch whiskey hand-selected by the founders of Uncle Nearest with a blend curated by descendants of Nearest Green. Every expression is distilled, aged, bottled, and hand-labeled in Tennessee.

About American Whiskey

There are two main representatives of the American whiskey family, bourbon, and rye, but some other spirits don't fall into those two strictly regulated categories.


There's equally strictly regulated American single malt, made from 100% malted barley, Tennessee whiskey, essentially bourbon filtered through maple charcoal and aged in new charred oak barrels.


And then there's moonshine, a high proof (150- 170 proof) distilled spirit mainly made out of corn which gained popularity during the prohibition.


Check out our impressive selection of American single malts, or find your new favorite in our rich whisk(e)y selection, and get familiarized with what the world has to offer.

The nose is sweet and oaky with a touch of cherry, chocolate, vanilla, and baking spices. The palate is pleasantly sweet, fruity, and complex with oak, toffee, and barrel char notes. The long finish has a balance of fruit, oak, and spice.
