Maker’s Mark Private Selection Black Forest Cake Bourbon

Product Description

Maker’s Mark Private Selection Kentucky Black Forest Cake Bourbon

This is a Maker’s Mark Private Selection, a limited single-barrel bourbon where the flavor comes from the wood. Maker’s Mark starts with its fully matured, handmade wheated bourbon and finishes it in a barrel fitted with 10 custom wood staves for nine more weeks in the distillery’s limestone cellar. Every Private Selection is a little different, and this one, Kentucky Black Forest Cake, leans dark and rich, like the dessert it’s named for: toasted caramel and creamy oak, with milk chocolate, coffee, cherry, and warm spice.

It’s a single barrel, so once it’s gone, it won’t be made again. It’s a good pick for Maker’s Mark fans, bourbon collectors, and anyone who wants a bottle with a story, and it’s easy to sip neat or over a large cube.
