Cheers π₯to @unclenearest βββββββββββββββββββ Nathan "Nearest" Green, known by those in his hometown of Lynchburg, Tenn., as Uncle Nearest, was the first African-American master distiller on record in the United States. He was also the first head stiller, now commonly referred to as master distiller, for Jack Daniel Distillery. He is now recognized by the distillery as having taught a young Jack Daniel how to make Tennessee Whiskey. Green is also thought to have helped perfect the Lincoln County Process, a special sugar maple charcoal filtering method required to be considered Tennessee Whiskey, named after the county in which he lived and made whiskey!!! . . . . . #Whiskey #drinkdrfeelgood #vintagemobilebar #prosecco #proseccovan #champagne #bourbon #GODisCEO (at Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3zXd3Ch7Ug/?igshid=v6f8c3f8aac1
