This is the fourth release in the limited edition Maker's Mark Wood Finishing Series. Like each of the previous in the series, the whiskey begins with fully matured cask strength Maker's Mark Bourbon. The whiskey is then finished in secondary barrels containing the proprietary wood staves. The spotlight for this year's edition is the brand's focus on hand-barrel rotation (BRT) and temperature in the rickhouse. This is one of two releases this year and Maker's Mark intends for them to be enjoyed as a pair.

BRT-02 is finished with French oak staves and the profile is meant to reflect the cooler bottom of the rickhouse. Bottled at a cask strength of 109.4 proof, this was released in October 2022. (SRP $59.99).

Tasting Notes

"The nose is a mix of cocoa, cinnamon, roasted almonds, and dried apricot. The palate starts on a bright note with dried fruit flavors of apricots, dates, and figs leading to a weighty, rich midpalate of vanilla caramels and milk chocolate covered almonds. The finish on this big whiskey is rather rich, but it's balanced by fruity tartness, a spark of heat and a hint of leather. "
