Description
Maker's Mark Wood Finishing Series: The Stewards Release 2026 – 750ml (Cask Strength)
Discover Maker's Mark Wood Finishing Series: The Stewards Release, the third installment in the distillery's second Wood Finishing Series, honoring the Star Hill Farm teams who oversee the process from start to finish — quality, bottling, engineering, security, processing, and shipping.
This cask strength wheated bourbon undergoes secondary maturation with exactly 10 virgin oak staves placed directly into the barrel, drawing out concentrated wood sugars and tannins for a deeper, bolder profile while preserving Maker's Mark's signature soft, wheated smoothness.
Tasting Notes: Bright aromas of cherry pie and vanilla bean, layered with honey, toasted marshmallow, and candied ginger, culminating in a vibrant finish of stone fruit and salted caramel.
