Maker’s Mark is debuting its Maker’s Mark Cellar Aged Bourbon, an annual, global limited-release.
The new release features a marriage of 11- and 12-year-old bourbons.
To become Maker’s Mark Cellar Aged, barrels of the distillery’s classic distillate first spend approximately six years aging in traditional bourbon warehouses. Barrels are then moved into the distillery’s proprietary whisky cellar for five to six additional years of aging before being blended to taste and bottled.
Cellar Aged will be an annual, limited release available in specific markets around the world. The inaugural release of Cellar Aged is a marriage of 12-year-old and 11-year-old whisky – 87% and 13%, respectively – bottled at cask strength (115.7 proof).
Cellar Aged will be available for a suggested retail price of USD $150.00 in the United States in September 2023; in London, Munich and select Global Travel Retail accounts in October 2023; and in Tokyo and Singapore in early 2024.
