Makers Mark Bespoke Bourbon 750 ml

Maker's Mark Bespoke is a custom single-barrel bourbon from Maker's Mark's Private Selection program, in which retailers choose a combination of French oak staves for a secondary finishing period before the barrel is bottled, layering extra wood character onto the brand's wheated mash bill. Because each Private Selection barrel is unique, the exact stave combination for this bottling isn't confidently known here. Expect a nose of vanilla and toasted oak, a rich, sweet palate typical of Maker's Mark with extra wood spice, and a warm, layered finish. It suits Maker's Mark fans curious about the brand's custom-finished single barrels.

How to drink Maker's Mark Bespoke

Its extra oak finishing holds up well neat or over a single rock, and it makes a fuller-flavored old fashioned than the standard bottling.
