Maker’s Mark 46 Cask Strength Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Pour this cask-strength bourbon neat for its fullest expression, or over a large cube to let its intensity ease gradually. Dark caramel gives the whiskey a rich sweetness, while cherry adds a ripe fruit note. Cinnamon brings warmth and definition without obscuring the sweeter side. Bottled at undiluted barrel proof, it offers a concentrated way to experience the profile.

Maker’s Mark 46 Cask Strength Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is finished with French oak staves. Charred oak adds a darker counterpoint to the caramel and fruit, giving the finish a firm bourbon character. The combination is straightforward and easy to follow: sweetness, fruit, spice, and oak, all delivered at cask strength. The 750 mL size works equally well for slow pours or simple bourbon cocktails that benefit from a stronger base.
