Straight from the barrel to the bottle at 108 to 114 proof, Maker's Mark Cask Strength retains the signature front-of-the-palate flavors of Maker's Mark "? while amping up the oak, caramel, vanilla and spice to create a remarkable new bourbon.

It's Cask Strength but it's Maker's smooth.Though it's bottled at a higher proof than either Maker's Mark or Maker's 46 bourbons, Maker's Mark Cask Strength has a lower proof than most cask strength whiskies. To us, a higher proof can overwhelm a bourbon with a heavy alcohol taste. And at Maker's Mark, we've always been about creating whiskies that taste "yummy."

"Simply the best Maker's Mark ever." ?????/Highest Recommendation F. Paul Pacult, Spirit Journal, December 2014
