The Story of Nearest Green


Narrated by Emmy-Award winning actor Jeffrey Wright.

This beautifully shot short film, telling the story of the first known African- American master distiller, is about much more than whiskey. It is a story of honor, respect, and an unlikely friendship that could be the greatest American story you never heard.
