Maker's Mark Cask Strength Bourbon

Bottled at barrel proof, Maker’s Mark Cask Strength it’s the boldest representation of our craft. It’s a whisky that provides a deepened experience of our signature tasting notes,​ with amplified notes of dark cherry, toasted oak, salted caramel, plenty of warm vanilla and a harmonious finish of dark chocolate and soft spices.

 

Each batch of Cask Strength is aged to perfection for a minimum of 7 years, until it reaches the perfect balance of flavor, then bottled in small batches. This means that each release is unique, yet every drop is unmistakably Maker’s Mark.
