2024 Maker’s Mark The Heart Wood Finishing Series Limited Release Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whisky 750ml

The 2024 Maker’s Mark “The Heart Release” is a 112.6 Proof (56.3% ABV) limited-edition Kentucky Straight Bourbon representing the inaugural entry in the second chapter of the Wood Finishing Series. This high-intent collectible bourbon celebrates the distillery’s production team, the “heart” of the operation, who guided the selection of its fruit-forward and creamy profile. The technical profile is defined by a finishing process utilizing 10 virgin toasted French oak staves, which amplify characteristics of dark chocolate, maple, and caramel.

Produced at the Maker’s Mark Distillery in Loretto, Kentucky, this cask strength expression is non-chill filtered to preserve its rich, velvety mouthfeel. The 2024 release features a new square bottle design, aligning it with the brand’s premium ultra-aged offerings like the Cellar Aged series. This bottling remains a primary target for enthusiasts seeking a technical bridge between the standard wheated profile and the deep wood-driven complexity of custom stave finishing.
