Uncle Nearest is making history with a brand new business venture 🙌🏾🍾⁠🥃 ⁠ The company recently secured ownership of an estate that dates back more than 350 years to the first Lord Mayor of Cognac, Philippe Fé de Ségeville. ⁠ ⁠ With this historical purchase, the brand is now labeled as Cognac and will produce products in the Grande Champagne vineyards, one of six crus in the Cognac region of France.⁠ ⁠ “The Uncle Nearest brand thrives on its profound story of love, honor, respect, and heritage. Our mission in Cognac echoes this essence,” Uncle Nearest Founder and CEO Fawn Weaver said.⁠ ⁠ The initiative will be spearheaded by several Black women, and the brand will be launched post-release of a short film that follows Cognac’s success in America, Europe and Asia. ⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in bio to read more. ⁠ ⁠ 🎥: @fawn.weaver @unclenearest // #BlackOwned #BlackBusiness #UncleNearest
