Maker’s Mark has announced the latest addition to its acclaimed Wood Finishing Series: The Heart Release. This 2024 expression continues the brand’s tradition of using innovative wood stave-finishing techniques to accentuate the unique qualities inherent in Maker’s Mark bourbon.
The Wood Finishing Series has become a hallmark of Maker’s Mark, showcasing limited edition expressions that highlight different aspects of their bourbon production. While the first chapter of the series focused on the production processes affecting Maker’s Mark’s flavor profile, the second chapter aims to spotlight the dedicated teams behind the creation of this iconic bourbon.

Bottled at an impressive 56.30% ABV (112.6 proof), The Heart Release is crafted to deliver a rich and creamy mouthfeel. Tasting notes reveal a fruit-forward profile with luscious hints of caramel, maple, and chocolate, promising a delightful experience for bourbon enthusiasts. This new release not only celebrates the craftsmanship behind Maker’s Mark but also emphasizes the collaborative spirit and dedication of the distillery team.
