Nearest Green Tennessee Whiskey is a premium expression honoring the legacy of Nathan “Nearest” Green, the first known African American master distiller and mentor to Jack Daniel. Crafted using a traditional Tennessee whiskey recipe and the time-honored Lincoln County Process—charcoal mellowing before barrel aging—this whiskey reflects the same values of excellence and innovation Nearest Green brought to the craft over a century ago.
Aged in new American oak barrels, this whiskey balances bold flavor with an approachable smoothness. It delivers a rich and complex profile that highlights the best of Tennessee whiskey-making while telling an important story of the man who helped shape its foundation.
