Maker's Mark The Keepers Release Kentucky Straight Bourbon

Maker’s Mark The Keepers Release 2025 is a limited Kentucky straight bourbon crafted in Loretto, Kentucky, and designed to showcase the distillery’s signature wheated style at its most expressive. Made from a mash bill of corn, soft red winter wheat, and malted barley, it is aged for over six years before being finished with custom toasted American oak staves that deepen its texture and complexity. Bottled at 54.654.654.6% ABV, it offers a bold yet refined profile.

On the nose, it opens with seasoned oak, caramelized sugar, cocoa, and hints of stone fruit. The palate is rich and creamy with layers of brown sugar, maple syrup, toasted vanilla, and warm baking spice, finishing long with dark chocolate, dried fruit, and charred oak. Best enjoyed neat or with a single cube of ice to let its full character slowly unfold.
