Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey History Dinner

Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey History Dinner | powered by Kentucky Black Bourbon Guild

Enjoy a four-course whiskey infused dinner while uncovering the origins of the first African-American master distiller on record in the United States, Nearest Green. From slave to a free man, the story of Nearest Green is about much more than whiskey. It is a story of honor, respect, and an unlikely friendship that could be the greatest American story you never heard.

Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey was the most awarded American Whiskey or Bourbon of 2019 and 2020. To date, the lineup of their three ultra-premium whiskeys have garnered more than 150 awards and accolades throughout the world.

Ticket proceeds will benefit the Kentucky Black Bourbon Guild Scholarship Initiative.
