Maker's Mark CASK STRENGTH Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whisky Batch No. 24-04 55.8% ABV 0.7l online kaufen

Maker's Mark CASK STRENGTH Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whisky Batch No. 24-04 55.8% showcases the characteristic style of the historic Maker’s Mark Distillery in a particularly concentrated form. Produced in Kentucky, USA, this wheated bourbon is based on a recipe that uses wheat instead of rye as the secondary grain. As a result, Maker’s Mark combines the typical strength of a Kentucky bourbon with a comparatively smooth, sweet-tinged character. For the Cask Strength bottling, the bourbon is bottled at its natural cask strength, ensuring that the influences of the charred American oak casks are preserved with particular intensity. Batch No. 24-04 reaches a robust 55.8% ABV and offers a significantly more concentrated interpretation of the classic Maker’s Mark style.

Maker's Mark Cask Strength Batch 24-04 combines intense cask notes with the brand’s characteristic balance of vanilla, caramel and sweet grain spice. Due to the higher alcohol content, notes of toasted oak, spices and darker, sweet elements come to the fore much more distinctly, whilst the wheat content ensures roundness and a smooth texture. It is precisely this combination of cask-strength Kentucky Straight Bourbon, traditional ageing in American white oak and the wheat-forward Maker’s Mark recipe that gives this bottling its distinctive character. The 0.7-litre bottle is aimed particularly at lovers of full-bodied bourbons who wish to experience the typical Maker’s Mark style as authentically as possible, with a distinctly pronounced cask character.

Tasting Note

Colour: Deep amber.

Nose: Intense, with vanilla, caramel and toasted oak, accompanied by sweet spices and warm cask notes.

Palate: Powerful and full-bodied with caramel, vanilla and spicy oak, complemented by sweet cereal notes and distinct oak spice.

Finish: Long-lasting and warming, with vanilla, oak, caramel and spicy accents.

Maker's Mark CASK STRENGTH Batch No. 24-04 is particularly well suited to being enjoyed neat at around 18 to 20 °C, although a few drops of still water can open up the robust 55.8% ABV and bring out additional sweet and spicy facets. Served over a large ice cube, the bourbon develops more slowly and is slightly milder. It pairs well with BBQ beef, glazed spare ribs, mature Cheddar or roasted pecans. When it comes to desserts, dark chocolate, caramel, crème brûlée or pecan cake harmonise very well with the intense cask profile.
