THE Heart
Release
The Heart Release celebrates the team that distils our whisky, our people who sit at the heart of Maker's, guiding and setting the tone for so much of what we do. Fruit forward, with caramel, maple, and chocolate notes, this expression features a rich, creamy mouthfeel that is a pure delight.
