With the launch of Maker’s Mark 46 came the creation of our Wood Finishing Series and an ever-growing list of Maker’s expressions. The result of finishing our signature bourbon with 1 seared virgin French oak staves, it has been a beloved addition to countless bar shelves for over a decade. In celebration, we’ve bottled its uncut counterpart –Maker’s Mark 46 Cask Strength. The original Maker’s Mark 46 is purposefully bottled at 94 proof to bring out the perfect combination of vanilla and baking spice that was ideal for Bill Jr.s’ taste vision. This special Maker’s Mark 46 Cask Strength Bourbon is bottled at barrel proof, offering stronger notes of caramel and dark, dried fruits – like figs and raisins.
