Alright, let’s talk about Uncle Nearest 1884—the small batch beauty that rolls in at 93 proof and packs way more heritage than your cousin’s Ancestry.com results.
Every barrel in this blend? Personally tasted. Not by some random intern, either—we’re talking Victoria Eady Butler, Master Blender and actual great-great-granddaughter of Nearest Green. Yeah. Legacy runs deep here. Like, “my ancestor literally taught Jack Daniel how to make whiskey” deep.
Flavor-wise? Think butterscotch, oak, and a touch of dried fruit—like dessert decided to grow up and get a leather jacket. It’s balanced, it’s got a medium-long finish, and it doesn’t punch you in the face with heat. Just a friendly wave and a wink as it goes down.
Basically, it’s the whiskey equivalent of someone who can play poker, grill ribs, and hold a decent conversation with your grandma—all without breaking a sweat. So grab a glass, raise a toast, and enjoy a pour that’s got history, heart, and a whole lot of smooth sass.
