The brothers revived the family distilling legacy in Nashville in 2014, and the Classic Bourbon reflects the same spirit of accessibility and quality that made the original Green Brier brand famous — a well-aged, high-rye blend without the pretension of ultra-premium single barrels, designed to be enjoyed rather than collected.
