Maker’s Mark Cellar Aged 2024 Release - Item Code: 09023
Tasting Notes and Characteristics:
Maker’s Mark Cellar Aged 2024 Release greets the palate with a rich, velvety mouthfeel that makes it perfect for slow sipping on special occasions or relaxed evenings. Bottled at 57.85% ABV, this bourbon is crafted in the United States using a unique process where mature barrels are aged further in limestone cellars, allowing deeper flavors to develop while maintaining Maker’s Mark’s signature smoothness.
On tasting, you’ll find layers of caramelized oak, dried fruit, and baking spices balanced by hints of vanilla and toasted nuts. These robust flavors pair beautifully with barbecue ribs, as the whiskey’s depth complements smoky meats and tangy sauces. For dessert, its warm spice and subtle sweetness enhance dark chocolate’s richness, creating a harmonious finish to any meal.

American Whiskey is a distinct category of distilled spirits primarily made from grains such as corn, rye, barley, and wheat. This spirit is characterized by its unique distillation methods—either pot still or column still—and is aged in new charred oak barrels. The aging process varies by type; for instance, straight whiskey must be aged for a minimum of two years. The flavor profiles differ significantly among styles: Bourbon offers sweet notes of caramel and vanilla with hints of spice, while Rye Whiskey presents a spicier character with peppery undertones and citrus hints.
The texture of American Whiskey can range from smooth to rich, depending on the specific style being enjoyed. Regions like Kentucky are renowned for Bourbon production, while Tennessee is known for its mellow Tennessee Whiskey that often undergoes charcoal filtering. Commonly used in classic cocktails such as the Old Fashioned and Manhattan, American Whiskey can also be savored neat or on the rocks. Understanding terms like mash bill and proof further enhances appreciation for this versatile spirit.
