Description

Maker’s Mark BEP Wood Finish Series 2023 – 109.6 Proof

Crafted to amplify the balanced wood sugars, softer tannins and lasting finish achieved with our low 110 BEP. Special finishing staves were used to amplify notes of vanilla and sweet spice. This limited-release bourbon showcases the influence of Maker’s® unique, 110 barrel entry proof (also known as BEP). This chapter of the Wood Finishing Series explored the nuanced techniques that helped our founders deliver on that distinct Maker’s® taste vision. 

In 2019 Maker’s Mark introduced their Wood Finishing Series, which was the brand’s first-ever nationally available limited release. Over the next five years, the brand would go on to release multiple expressions, with 2021 and 2022 seeing two releases each respectively. For this year’s expression, Maker’s Mark says the brand’s focus is “showcasing the influence of our unique 110 barrel entry proof (BEP). It was crafted to amplify the balanced wood sugars, softer tannins and lasting finish achieved with our low 110 BEP. Special finishing staves were used to amplify notes of vanilla and sweet spice that naturally occur from lower BEPs.”
