Maker's Mark Private Select Breeder's Cup 2025

The Maker’s Mark Private Select Breeders’ Cup 2025 Bourbon is a rare collaboration between two icons of Kentucky: Maker’s Mark Distillery and the world-renowned Breeders’ Cup. This annual release celebrates the prestige of championship thoroughbred racing while showcasing the innovation of Maker’s Mark’s Private Select program. Using their unique stave-finishing process, the distillery crafts a bourbon that is unmistakably Maker’s yet singular to this release, bottled at cask strength and available only in limited numbers.

Why Buy the Maker’s Mark Breeders’ Cup 2025?
Every Private Select is different, but the Breeders’ Cup edition stands apart as a collector’s item that unites two Kentucky traditions—horse racing and bourbon. Crafted with a customized stave recipe chosen specifically for this release, it balances bold oak influence with Maker’s signature soft red winter wheat sweetness. With allocations tied to the event, once this bottle is gone, it won’t return, making it a highly sought-after keepsake for bourbon fans and racing enthusiasts alike.

The Background
Maker’s Mark revolutionized bourbon finishing with its Private Select program, which allows bespoke combinations of ten oak finishing staves to shape flavor. The Breeders’ Cup partnership is one of the most anticipated annual releases, reflecting not only bourbon craftsmanship but also Kentucky culture. Each edition highlights how subtle stave variations can produce a complex, one-of-a-kind bourbon that still carries the smooth, approachable DNA of Maker’s Mark.

The Story

It’s more than a bourbon—it’s a toast to heritage, innovation, and the winning tradition of Kentucky.
