About this bottle

Maker's Mark Wood Finish Series: The Heart Release is a limited bourbon finished with seared French oak staves inserted into the barrel after initial maturation, a technique Maker's Mark uses across its Wood Finishing Series to add a second layer of oak character. The staves push the profile toward deeper caramel, toasted vanilla, and baking spice, with more oak weight on the finish than standard Maker's Mark. It's built as a limited annual release rather than a core-range bottle, aimed at bourbon drinkers who already know the standard expression and want to taste what extra wood contact adds. A good pick for someone collecting the Wood Finishing Series or looking for a bolder, oakier bourbon than the base bottling.

How to drink Maker's Mark Wood Finish: The Heart Release

Neat is the way to taste what the staves actually add — the extra oak and spice are the whole point of this release, and ice mutes them fast. One large cube if you want it colder, but skip mixing it into a cocktail.

Questions about this bottle

What's the best way to serve Maker's Mark Wood Finish: The Heart Release?

Neat is best — the finishing process adds extra oak and spice that ice tends to mute, so use one large cube at most if you want it colder.

What does 'wood finished' mean for this bourbon?

It means seared French oak staves are added to the barrel after the bourbon has already matured, giving it a second round of oak contact beyond standard aging.

Is this a limited release?

Yes — The Heart Release is part of Maker's Mark's annual Wood Finishing Series, a limited bottling separate from the core Maker's Mark range.
