Maker's Mark "Wood Finishing Series" Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

$99
Release Year

ABOUT

Maker’s Mark has resisted the rampant experimentation that defines some distilleries, but they appear to be making up for lost time with two 2021 releases in their Wood Finishing Series, which started in 2019. This release is enhanced by an American oak stave that has been toasted on only one side then added to the barrel. This innovation amps up the oak influence without going overboard. Fresh-sawn oak, earthiness, leather, and iced tea are balanced by caramel apple, toffee, and baking spice. A flavor-packed, oak-driven bourbon that wears its proof well.

TASTING NOTES

AROMA: Heavy vanilla with spiced caramel
TASTE: Butter pecan ice cream. Vanilla with creamy butter notes, dry spice, and caramelized sweetness.
FINISH: Long, round, and dry PROOF Cask Strength (110.8)
