Description
When Uncle Nearest announced that they -through their French subsidiary – had become the largest vineyard owner of Grande Champagne grapes in the city of Cognac, France, the spirits world took notice. Not only had an American company achieved what many thought impossible, but they did it in one of the most exclusive and tightly held regions in the world. Becoming a vineyard owner in Cognac is no easy feat. But for Uncle Nearest, bold moves are part of their DNA.
This special release begins with their award-winning Uncle Nearest 1884 mash bill—-patiently aged to perfection, elegantly finished in XO Cognac casks.
These barrels, once home to XO – Extra Cognac from the Fins Bois and Borderies regions of France, impart delicate floral and fruity notes born from the region’s distinctive terroir. The result is a bold, cask strength, small batch blend that beautifully bridges American whiskey tradition with French refinement. It’s more than a pour—it’s a first taste of the journey ahead, offering an exclusive preview of the flavor experience waiting when Uncle Nearest Cognac makes its stateside debut.
