The Maker's Mark Wood Finishing Series is an annual limited release that uses different combinations of custom finishing staves to create unique, one-time expressions. Each year's release experiments with different wood types, toast levels and stave combinations, creating a bourbon that will never be replicated.
The Wood Finishing concept extends the stave innovation of Maker's 46 and Private Selection into more experimental territory. Each release pushes the boundaries of what oak treatment can do to the wheated Maker's base, with some years emphasising spice, others fruit, others vanilla.
The Wood Finishing Series demonstrates Maker's Mark's ongoing commitment to innovation through wood science. Each annual release is a snapshot of the distillery's experimentation, bottled at cask strength for maximum expression. A collectible series backed by genuine liquid quality.
