Maker's Mark Cask Strength Bourbon Whisky 750ml

Maker's Mark, Straight from the Barrel — Nothing Held Back

Maker's Mark has been crafting its signature wheated bourbon at Star Hill Farm in Loretto, Kentucky since 1953. Cask Strength takes that same beloved recipe and skips the proofing step entirely — bottled straight from the barrel at whatever proof the season delivers, typically between 108 and 114. The result is Maker's Mark in its most concentrated, unfiltered form: all the front-of-palate softness the brand is known for, amplified by the full intensity of the cask.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Rich and warming. Caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak lead with a generous wave of baking spice and a hint of smoke.
• Palate: Surprisingly smooth for the proof. The signature Maker's softness remains intact, with amplified notes of caramel, vanilla, oak, and warming spice building across the palate.
• Finish: Long and robust. Spice, smoke, and sweet oak linger with a satisfying warmth that fades slowly.
