Visit the 2023 Tennessee Whiskey Distillery of the Year Uncle Nearest tours

---

Nearest Green Distillery is the world's first distillery to commemorate an African American. Dubbed as "Malt Disney World," and named by Travel + Leisure as a "true whiskey destination," the 432-acre property has become known as a full-blown destination for whiskey lovers, history enthusiasts, and families. It is a master class in storytelling and history-making, paying tribute to the three things Tennessee is most known for: Tennessee Whiskey, Tennessee walking horses and Tennessee music.

Book your tour and tasting with MC Transportationavel to see every bit of our 432-acre, four-phase, $50 million build-out, is a master class in storytelling and history-making. No matter where you turn on our property, we are either unveiling history-making moments of the past or history being made in the present. If that's not enough, the distillery is also the only place you can purchase our exclusive (and award-winning) new release, Master Blend Edition.

We are pleased to announce that Barrel House II is now serving on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, as well. Voted #1 Grilled Cheese on both Buzzfeed and Yelp, this is a meal you don't want to miss!
