Looking at Uncle Nearest 1856 is akin to looking at a precious gemstone. This premium blend from Tennessee’s Uncle Nearest is masterfully composed of whiskeys aged between 8 and 14 years. A rich caramel color with beautiful golden depths, Uncle Nearest 1856 has aromas of baled hay with subtle hints of ripe stone fruit. With bold spice upfront mellowed by caramel and maple, 1856 is reminiscent of freshly baked oatmeal raisin cookies.
