Charles Nelson immigrated from Germany with his family in 1850. His father was washed overboard during the trip and the burden of supporting the family landed squarely on his fifteen-year-old shoulders. He set immediately to work making soap and candles. Then he opened up a store to sell them. Then he expanded the store into a large grocery chain still in operation today. Eventually, he bought-out his Whiskey supplier — the Green Brier Distillery. Fate and fortune caused that distillery to close in 1909, but Charles Nelson’s great-great-grandsons — Andy and Charlie — re-founded the distillery, producing a range of Bourbons, Tennessee Whiskeys, and specialty Spirits.
Each batch of Belle Meade Cask Strength Reserve Bourbon is comprised of just seven hand-selected barrels that compliment each other. That Spirit is combined with a cask or two of the same Bourbon to up the proof. That means each release is a little bit different than the one that came before it. But in the case of Belle Meade, the level of quality is very consistent — which is why it was voted a Top 10 Whisky in 2018. The 113.6 proof edition was released last year, is sourced from MGP, and is bottled without chill-filtering. It’s a great dram and a great value.

Bourbons are very high in vanilla, as American White Oak is naturally high in vanillins.

Smooth Smokey and well balanced with a bit of stone fruit and chocolate flavors.
