- AGED TO TASTE, NOT TIME
Aging our whisky for over 10 years wasn't something we ever did. Not because we didn't believe in it but because we hadn't found our way of doing it. Maker’s Mark® Cellar Aged defines an older whisky that’s distinctly Maker’s. By embracing both the unique impact that our warehouse and cellar maturation have on flavor, we've created an older expression that is richer and more complex whilst staying true to the founder's taste vision of bourbon without the bite. The 2024 Release of Cellar Aged is an artistic blend of 12- and 13-year-old barrels to achieve the taste vision for a brighter, fruiter and more complex Maker’s Mark.

We've got you covered!

1. What is the graduation process?
Once we’ve marked your barrel as mature, you’ll receive an announcement and all the instructions you’ll need! You’ll have a six-month window to purchase bottles from your Ambassador batch. Those windows run from April 1-Sept 30, and Oct 1-March 31.
You’ll be eligible for a free Golden Ticket Tour for you and one guest! Keep in mind that we’re only booking tours about 6 weeks out, so if you don’t see the dates you’re interested in on the website, check back with us a little closer to your visit. While you’re here, you’ll be able to purchase and dip your personalized Ambassador bottles as well. Just tell our team how many you’d like to purchase when you arrive! -
2. How do I get my bottles?
Just stop by the Homeplace here at Star Hill Farm and check in with our team. Once they identify your account, they’ll get your bottles set and waiting for you to dip at the Gift Shop.
No RSVP is necessary if you’re just stopping to pick up your bottles, but if you are planning on getting more than 9 it’s very helpful to give us a heads up so you don’t have to wait any longer than necessary! -
3. Can Maker’s Mark mail me my personalized Ambassador bottles?
Unfortunately, no. We are unable to mail your Ambassador bottles. If you’re afraid you may miss your window, you can always claim your personalized bottles later. They won’t have bourbon from your specific batch, but it will still be the Maker’s Mark® you know and love, and you’ll still be able to hand-dip them!
-
4. Can I send someone in my place to pick up my personalized bottles?
Of course! If you aren’t able to make it down during your graduation window, you’re welcome to have a friend or family member stop by to pick up your bottles in your place. They’ll just need your Ambassador ID number.

5. How can I book my Golden Ticket Tour?
You can book your Golden Ticket Tour here. Keep in mind that we’re only booking tours about 6 weeks out, so if you don’t see the dates you’re interested in on the website, check back with us a little closer to your visit.

6. What if I missed my window?
No worries! If you missed your graduation window, you are still more than welcome to take your Golden Ticket Tour and claim your personalized bottles. The bourbon in your bottles won’t be from your specific batch, but it will still be the same handmade Maker’s Mark® you know and love.
