Maker's Mark Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whisky is crafted at the Maker's Mark Distillery located in Loretto, Kentucky. This bourbon is known for its smooth and approachable flavor profile, achieved through a mash bill of 70% corn, 16% red winter wheat, and 14% malted barley. The use of red winter wheat instead of rye gives it a softer, sweeter taste. It is aged to taste, typically around 6 years, in charred American oak barrels, which impart rich vanilla and caramel notes. The whisky is bottled at 45% ABV (90 proof), offering a balanced and full-bodied experience with hints of oak, vanilla, and caramel.
