Maker’s Mark 101 Proof Bourbon Whisky

Maker’s Mark 101 is a higher-proof version of the classic Maker’s Mark wheated bourbon — built on the signature mash bill of 70% corn, 16% wheat, and 14% malted barley, aged around six years, and bottled at 101 proof (50.5% ABV).

Originally available primarily at the distillery, Maker’s Mark 101 takes the familiar soft, wheated Maker’s profile and raises the proof to draw out deeper, more concentrated flavor. The wheat secondary grain keeps it rounder and sweeter than rye-recipe bourbons even at the higher strength.
