Whisky Advocate: The 20 Most Exciting Whiskeys of 2022

As the world of whiskey gets more and more crowded, we’re honored and excited to be included in a round up with so many great spirits. The folks at Whisky Advocate were so impressed with our new Nelson Brothers Reserve expression, they included it in their list of 2022 Whiskeys of note.

“Charlie and Andy Nelson resurrected the family company in 2009, a century after it was shuttered by Tennessee’s Prohibition laws. Initial efforts focused on a second label, Belle Meade, which scored well. This year came the first releases bearing the family name on two bourbon labels–Nelson Bros. Classic and Reserve. Both have carried on the legacy admirably. This one packs a punch but is soft and gentle at the same time, offering red berry and vanilla malt aromas and a palate of melted marshmallow, coconut shavings, and baked apple. Like all good whiskeys, it saves the best for last, with a long, creamy finish of chocolate and spice.”
