Maker’s Mark Cask Strength Bourbon
Process & Profile
Maker’s Mark Cask Strength Bourbon is a limited-edition Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whisky, handcrafted at Star Hill Farm in Loretto, Kentucky. Aged for 7 years and 3 months in hand-rotated, charred American oak barrels, this small-batch release is bottled straight from the barrel at 56.1% ABV (112.2 proof). Matured to enhance notes of toasted oak, salted caramel, and dark chocolate, it reflects the distillery’s signature wheated mash bill (70% corn, 16% wheat, 14% malted barley). Non-chill filtered and free of artificial coloring, each batch is carefully selected to capture the unique character of the cask.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Rich aromas of toasted oak, salted caramel, and dark chocolate, with hints of vanilla and a touch of spice.
Palate: Bold and full-bodied, featuring creamy caramel, dark chocolate, and oak, balanced by subtle wheat sweetness and a warm spice kick.
Finish: Long and robust, with lingering toasted oak, salted caramel, and a smooth, chocolatey warmth.
What Makes It Special
Cask Strength Intensity: Bottled at barrel proof (112.2 proof) without dilution, delivering an unfiltered, robust flavor profile.
Hand-Selected Barrels: Each batch, like Batch No. 17-04, is chosen for its distinctive taste, ensuring a unique expression.
Wheated Bourbon Tradition: The use of red winter wheat creates a softer, sweeter contrast to rye-based bourbons, enhanced by extended aging.
How to Enjoy
Neat or With Water: Savor neat for its full intensity or add a drop of water to reveal nuanced caramel and chocolate notes.
Cocktails: Elevates bold cocktails like an Old Fashioned or Manhattan with its rich, cask-strength depth.
Pairing: Complements dark chocolate desserts, roasted nuts, or smoked meats for a luxurious tasting experience.
