MAKER’S MARK WOOD FINISHING SERIES 2020 LIMITED RELEASE
Maker’s Mark Wood Finishing Series 2020 Limited Release: Stave Profile SE4 X PR5 is a marriage of virgin toasted American & French oak staves. The whiskey is then barrel finished to amplify notes of vanilla, baking spices & creamy caramel. Bottled at 112.5 proof.
Maker's Mark Wood Finishing Series 2020 is the second in the ongoing limited edition series for Maker's Mark which began with the 2019 RC6 release. The 2020 release focuses on the caramel and vanilla notes by using two different types of staves SE4 and PR5 from Independent Stave Company. SE4 is made from virgin French oak which was convection cooked at medium heat as well as receiving a short toast period. PR5 is made from virgin American oak which is convection cooked slowly at a low heat. These two staves were placed in secondary barrels and filled with fully-matured cask strength Maker's Mark followed by a marrying period of the two bourbons. Bottled at 110.8 proof
