DESCRIPTION

Uncle Nearest 1856 Premium Whiskey 100 Proof has a caramel color with a beautiful deep golden hue. Baled hay and pumpkin seeds on the nose with subtle notes of ripe stone fruit and caramel corn.

A Great Drink

It is a drink that you have to drink slowly because it will sneak up on you and knock you down. You won't have a hangover though. It tastes delicious. Bravo to Uncle Nearest.
