Episode 14 - Fawn Weaver (Women in Whiskey Series)
Join us today as we speak with the incredible Fawn Weaver, CEO a Chief Historian for Uncle Nearest Distillery. Nearest Green was the first African-American Master Distiller in the United States--though his story was never really told because he was black and a slave for much of his life. He mentored Jack Daniel and ultimately set the foundation for making that brand what it is today. Listen in to hear more about Nathan "Nearest" Green and how Fawn has revitalized his name and his legacy on whiskey through the Uncle Nearest Distillery.
