Cool thing is, we meet all the requirements to be classified as bourbon. The only thing that sets us apart is the Lincoln County Process, i.e. maple charcoal filtering. This is the process Nearest Green helped perfect in 1856. Cheers!

And 'Uncle' was a term used in Lynchburg as an indication of respect - for both whites and blacks. If you read Jack Daniel’s Legacy, you will find JD is referred to as “Uncle Jack” just like Nearest was referred to as Uncle Nearest.
