Uncle Nearest

The Uncle Nearest Distillery, also called Nearest Green Distillery, is located in Shelbyville, Tennessee, about an hour southeast of Nashville, honoring Nathan "Nearest" Green, the first known African American master distiller who taught Jack Daniel his craft, offering tours, tastings, and an immersive experience with history, the world's largest bar (Humble Baron), and BBQ, though recent news indicates potential financial challenges for the business.
