Quintessential Kentucky bourbon Maker\u2019s Mark has just announced the launch of its Maker\u2019s Mark Cellar Aged 2024. Following their success with the 2023 release, the 2024 edition is matured for 12 and 13 years in a cool cellar surrounded by limestone, then blended to create a distinct palette.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A blend of 15% Maker\u2019s Mark 12-year-old and 85% Maker\u2019s Mark 13-year-old, Dr. Blake Layfield, Head of Innovation and Blending at Maker\u2019s Mark, believes the limestone shelf surrounding the cellar is what imparts such a complexity in the whiskey: \u201cDelivering an elevated expression that\u2019s distinctly Maker\u2019s Mark, Cellar Aged finishes maturation in our LEED-certified cellar, built into the limestone shelf that surrounds us, creating a richer, deeper and more complex bourbon, free from the harsher tannic effects commonly found in older American whiskies.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The whiskey delivers aromas of zesty citrus, toasted almonds, and caramelized sugar, complementing a palate of bright spices, rich coconut, and buttery shortbread until it settles towards a finish of subtle oak and dark fruits.<\/p>\n

Rob Samuels, grandson to Bill Samuels Sr. and Managing Director of Maker\u2019s Mark, stated, \u201cwe surprised the world with the debut of Maker\u2019s Mark Cellar Aged last year, a bold step in our family\u2019s legacy because, for more than 65 years, aging our whisky for a decade-plus wasn\u2019t something we did\u2026 Staying true to our founders\u2019 flavor vision and our relentless pursuit of excellence, we\u2019re thrilled to introduce our most mature bourbon yet.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Bottled at 59.7% ABV, Maker\u2019s Mark Cellar Aged 2024 features a suggested retail price of $174.99 in the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, and other Global Travel Retail accounts. It will be available in Korea, Japan and Singapore in 2025.<\/strong><\/p>\n
