Maker’s Mark Wood Finishing Series The Steward Release 109.8 Proof

Description

Tasting Notes and Characteristics:

Maker’s Mark Wood Finishing Series The Steward Release 109.8 Proof drinks with a rich, warming mouthfeel, opening on deep caramel, toasted oak, baking spice, and a gentle sweetness that lingers into a long, polished finish. As part of the Maker’s Mark Wood Finishing Series, this bourbon is crafted in the United States and shaped by an extra wood-finishing approach that adds layered texture and complexity to the classic Maker’s Mark style. Bottled at 109.8 proof with an ABV of 0.549, it has enough intensity to sip slowly on its own, though it really shines alongside smoked brisket, where the whiskey’s sweet oak and spice can play off the meat’s smoky richness.

Producer Information: Maker’s Mark Distillery

Maker’s Mark Distillery is a Kentucky bourbon producer based in Loretto, where its identity is closely tied to the state’s long whiskey-making heritage and to a hands-on approach that emphasizes consistency, small-batch production, and its signature red wax hand-dipped bottles. As a distillery, Maker’s Mark focuses on bourbon whiskey, especially a softer wheated style that sets the Maker’s Mark name apart within the Beam Suntory portfolio. Alongside its flagship bourbon, the producer also makes Maker’s Mark 46, Maker’s Mark Cask Strength, and select limited releases such as Private Selection and Wood Finishing Series expressions, extending the house style through different maturation and flavor profiles.
