Hola mi gente! Feliz Año Nuevo, Happy New Year. We are back for the second half of Season 2 for Siempre Pa’lante! Always Forward. I’m your host, Giraldo Luis Alvaré. Gracias for listening.
Before we start, I wish all of you an abundance of health, love, happiness and wealth for 2023 and beyond. Your support has helped this show gravitate to new heights; the best is yet to come. Speaking of the best, this next episode is a story about familia that inspires everytime it's told.
Have you heard about Nathan “Nearest” Green? He’s a former slave who became Tennessee’s premier whisky distiller and taught Jack Daniels how to make whiskey. Yes, you heard that right. He taught Jack Daniels how to make whiskey.
In 2016, On the 150th anniversary of Jack Daniels Tennessee Whiskey, Clay Risen wrote an article for the NY Times about Nathan “Nearest” Green. Fawn Weaver, an author and entrepreneur, was in Singapore when she read the article. This marked the beginning of something special. How special? Let’s just say the spirits industry has been introduced to a legacy that is rewriting history. A history ensuring the story is being told straight from the source.
Our guest is part of the team behind the most awarded American Whiskey or Bourbon since its launch in 2017. She is the great-great-granddaughter of Nearest Green and as a master blender for Uncle Nearest, she has reshaped the whiskey and bourbon industry. Please welcome, Victoria Eady Butler.
