Book Synopsis
Embark on a captivating journey with Love & Whiskey. New York Times bestselling author Fawn Weaver unveils the hidden narrative behind one of America's most iconic whiskey brands. This book is a vibrant exploration set in the present day, delving into the life and legacy of Nearest Green, the African American distilling genius who played a pivotal role in the creation of the whiskey that bears Jack Daniel's name.
Set against the backdrop of Lynchburg, Tennessee, this narrative weaves together a thrilling blend of personal discovery, historical investigation, and the revelation of a story long overshadowed by time. Through extensive research, personal interviews, and the uncovering of long-buried documents, Weaver brings to light not only the remarkable bond between Nearest Green and Jack Daniel but also Daniel's concerted efforts during his lifetime to ensure Green's legacy would not be forgotten. This deep respect for his teacher, mentor, and friend was mirrored in Jack's dedication to ensuring that the stories and achievements of Nearest Green's descendants, who continued the tradition of working side by side with Jack and his descendants, would also not be forgotten
Love & Whiskey is more than just a recounting of historical facts; it's a live journey into the heart of storytelling, where every discovery adds a layer to the rich tapestry of American history. Weaver's pursuit highlights the importance of acknowledging those who have shaped our cultural landscape; yet remained in the shadows.
As Weaver intertwines her present-day quest with the historical threads of Green and Daniel's lives, she not only pays homage to their legacy but also spearheads the creation of Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey. This endeavor has not only brought Nearest Green's name to the forefront of the whiskey industry but has also set new records, symbolizing a step forward in recognizing and celebrating African American contributions to the spirit world.
Love & Whiskey invites readers to witness a story of enduring friendship, resilience, and the impact of giving credit where it's long overdue. It's an inspiring tale of how uncovering the past can forge new paths and how the spirit of whiskey has connected lives across generations. Join Fawn Weaver on this extraordinary adventure, as she navigates through the layers of history, friendship, and the unbreakable bonds formed by the legacy of America's native spirit, ensuring the stories of Nearest Green and his descendants live on in the heart of American culture.

So looking forward to getting this book. The snippets of the story I've heard about has me begging for more. And, I need to hit the store to replenish my Uncle Nearest stash.
The story is told very well. Let us know what you think about it when you read it! What is your favorite expression from Nearest? Their products are definitely a must have on your bar.
@theliquorconnoisseur Fawn Weaver did an interview yesterday on Sirius XM Urban View, and I was captivated as she was telling part of the story. I was driving at the time and ordered the book at the first stop light off tge highway.. 🤣🤣🤣. I'm kind of torn between 1856 and the single barrel rye.
I preordered a copy in February but bought another copy yesterday at Barnes and Noble. Hope you are able to get an autographed copy. We like 1856 and The Masters Blend.
Thank you guys for the review!👍🏾 I preordered 2 of these books for my husband & dad as a Father’s Day gift! They both loved it and they definitely sipped on Uncle Nearest & Jack Daniel while reading it! I’m going to read it shortly myself!🥰
We are glad you liked our review! I had done the pre order, but didn't want to wait on Amazon and got a second copy at Barnes and Noble. Your husband and father are very lucky to have you! This is a great gift! Let us know what you think of the book.🥃
@@theliquorconnoisseur I definitely will and thank you so much for responding to my comment! Peace ✌🏾 & Love 🤗 to you both!
Which is your favorite of the Uncle Nearest varieties?
1856 and Masters Blend. The Masters Blend bottle is special as an uncle in our family gifted it to us. Hoping to visit him and tour the distillery.
The Master Blend Edition is best we've had so far, with 1856 being a close second. We still have two we're saving for the viewers. Im sure the Straight Rye and Single Barrel expressions will be exceptional!
