Even the biddies need a (cocktail) break but we are so excited to have our last episode of the summer be dedicated to the brand Uncle Nearest and the fascinating, empowering, and inspiring story behind the owner, the distillery, and the person who inspired the brand. The biddies highly recommend grabbing this whiskey and sitting down with us.
