Maker’s Mark USA 250th Anniversary Bourbon Limited Edition 750mL

Maker's Mark USA 250th Anniversary Limited Edition is a commemorative bottling of classic Maker's Mark Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whisky released to mark the United States' 250th anniversary in 2026 — the same wheated bourbon at 90 proof in a limited patriotic bottle featuring red, white, and blue wax detailing, with a portion of sales supporting the Farmer Veteran Coalition's programs for veterans transitioning into agricultural careers.

Maker's Mark has been produced at Star Hill Farm in Loretto, Kentucky since 1954 using a wheated mash bill — soft red winter wheat replaces rye as the secondary grain, producing the smoother, rounder, and more approachable character that distinguishes Maker's from high-rye bourbons. The 90-proof bottling is the distillery's standard strength. The 250th anniversary bottle does not change the whiskey; the patriotic red, white, and blue wax is the 1776–2026 milestone's contribution, adding a collector and display dimension to a bottle that remains one of the most recognized Kentucky bourbons in the world. Any order also ships together with existing items once this bottle is available.

Tasting Notes
