RieImagine Solutions, in collaboration with Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey and Jerk Shack Seattle, successfully organized the "Meet the Maker" Dinner, an intimate and exclusive event held on February 20, 2020.

This event was a part of Black History Month celebrations and provided a unique opportunity for 55 attendees to engage with Victoria Eady-Butler, the Master Blender and great-great-granddaughter of Nathan "Uncle Nearest" Green, the man credited with teaching Jack Daniel how to distill whiskey.

The evening featured a curated 4-course dinner paired with selections from Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey, held at Jerk Shack Seattle, a renowned Black-owned establishment known for its exceptional Caribbean cuisine. The event was designed to not only celebrate the legacy of Uncle Nearest but also to foster community connections and cross-promotions among local businesses.

RieImagine Solutions played a crucial role in the success of the "Meet the Maker" Dinner by providing outreach, marketing, and event coordination services. In collaboration with the Northwest Regional Brand Representative for Uncle Nearest at that time, Sailor Guevara, and the owners of Jerk Shack Seattle, RieImagine ensured the event's seamless execution. Responsibilities included managing the guest list, coordinating with event partners, and facilitating cross-promotion efforts. RieImagine also supported outreach efforts, including offering two tickets for a giveaway to enhance community engagement and visibility of the event. 

The "Meet the Maker" Dinner was an overwhelming success, bringing together a diverse group of 55 attendees who left with a deeper appreciation for both the culinary and historical significance of the event.

The intimate setting allowed for meaningful conversations, with Victoria Eady-Butler sharing stories and insights into her family's legacy. The event further solidified Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey's presence in the Northwest region, boosting brand recognition and community support. The strategic cross-promotion efforts orchestrated by RieImagine Solutions helped elevate the profiles of both Uncle Nearest and Jerk Shack Seattle, ensuring a memorable experience for all attendees and a successful celebration of Black History Month.
