Honor history with the latest innovation from the most-awarded bourbon and American whiskey brand of 2019, 2020, and 2021. The Uncle Nearest Toasted Single Barrel Limited Release is a rare and exquisite expression that takes the brand's celebrated Tennessee Whiskey to new heights. Carefully selected by Master Blender Victoria Eady Butler—the great-great-granddaughter of Nearest Green—this whiskey undergoes a secondary maturation in custom toasted American oak barrels.
Unlike traditional charring, the toasting process gently caramelizes the wood sugars without burning them, imparting a rich, dessert-like complexity to the spirit. Bottled at Barrel Strength (varying by barrel, typically between 118-122 proof) and filtered through the Lincoln County Process, this limited release offers a perfect balance of bold potency and velvety smoothness.
