Andy Nelson
Andy Nelson is the co-founder and head distiller of Nelson’s Green Brier Distillery in Nashville, TN. His introduction to the business came by chance in 2006, when he and his younger brother Charlie learned that their triple great grandfather, Charles Nelson, had been one of the most prominent whiskey distillers in pre-prohibition America. After a period of immersive research into their family history—and the business of making and selling whiskey in the 21st century—the Nelson brothers dedicated themselves to the resurrection of Nelson’s Green Brier Distillery. Their efforts over the ensuing decade have generated a great and ongoing success story. Andy lives in Nashville with his wife, son, and dog.
