Uncle Nearest Cognac Cask is a single-barrel Tennessee whiskey built on the brand's 1884 mash bill, charcoal mellowed using the Lincoln County Process, and finished in 10 to 20-year-old XO Cognac casks from the Fins Bois and Borderies regions of France. It's bold at 120.5 proof and layered with stone fruit, dried florals, and old French oak.

It is a good fit for collectors and whiskey drinkers who want a rich, dessert-leaning, high-proof pour. Sip it neat with a few drops of water, or over one large cube.
