Makers Mark
View Full Description [+ Read More]
Maker's Mark is a bourbon distillery based in Loretto, Kentucky, operating on a historic site designated a National Historic Landmark. The distillery produces wheated bourbon, substituting red winter wheat for rye in its mash bill to yield a softer grain character, then ages each barrel by hand-rotating them through multi-story rickhouses. The Wood Finishing Series - including FAE-01, FAE-02, BRT-01, BRT-02, and the 2020 Release - applies secondary stave finishing to fully matured bourbon, with each annual expression using different wood treatments to alter flavor profile. Maker's Mark 101 Limited Release delivers extra aging at a higher proof, while the BEP Wood Finish Series 2023 at 109.6 proof represents the upper end of the range. The Maker's Mark Bourbon 2025 Dodgers Limited Edition marks a licensed partnership bottling within the wheated bourbon core recipe.
