Drink Hacker Reviews Nelson's Green Brier Tennessee Whiskey
Nelson’s Green Brier Tennessee Whiskey
It’s been a while since we got a report card in school, but man those nerves are still there! Now that our hard work is out there for the world to enjoy, we get some pretty serious aficionados interested in our whiskey, and well, they’re sizing us up agains the best of the best, folks. It’s exciting, nerve-wracking, and ultimately very rewarding to see what the experts are saying about our original recipe that’s years in the making.
Check out what Drink Hacker’s Drew Beard had to say about our Nelson’s Green Brier Tennessee Whiskey!
“The nose on this whiskey is huge. Big earthy notes of woodshop, cigar box, and incense are balanced against sweeter oolong tea, orchard fruit, and Snickers bar. There’s only the slightest hint of youth with a bit of creamed corn, but all-in-all it is complex and balanced and just downright fun to nose for an unnecessarily long period of time. It’s thick on the palate, syrupy and mouthcoating. There’s rich toffee, Graham cracker, and toasted marshmallow with plenty of baking spice, cinnamon apples, and sweet pepper. It gets earthier into the mid-palate with campfire, clove, and maple frosting. The finish is long with wood smoke, vanilla ice cream, and a bit of chocolate sauce. I think the original Charles Nelson would be pretty proud. Probably time for a trip to Nashville, folks.”
