Uncle Nearest 1856 Premium Aged Whiskey & 1884 Small Batch Whiskey Set

The Uncle Nearest 1856 & 1884 Set pairs two expressions from the brand named for Nathaniel “Nearest” Green, the first known African American master distiller — the 1856 Premium Aged Whiskey and the 1884 Small Batch Whiskey, together in one set.

Uncle Nearest honors the legacy of Nearest Green, who taught Jack Daniel to distill. Launched in 2017, it became one of the fastest-growing independent American whiskey brands in U.S. history.
