Uncle Nearest 1856 50% ABV
Produced in Tennessee from a mix of corn and rye whiskies, this expression from Uncle Nearest is a classic example of whiskey made in the state. It’s been filtered using the Lincoln County maple charcoal filtration process, before being aged in brand new American oak. The brand is named after Nathan Green, known as Uncle Nearest, who was the first known African-American master distiller in the US. He even taught a certain Jack Daniel how to distil..!
Tasting note:
Nose: The aroma promises an indulgently rich dram, with notes of brown sugar cubes, sultanas, glace cherries, cinnamon, bread-and-butter pudding, and a crisp apple note.
Palate: Mouth-filling with LOADS of sweetness, there’s abundant corn character along with flapjack, maple syrup, chocolate-covered peanuts, hay and black pepper.
Finish: Long with more fruitness and a tangy oak spice.
