Maker’s Mark is launching its first wheat whiskey in its 70-year history

Star Hill Farm Whisky is the first wheat whiskey ever made by Maker's Mark

Maker's Mark

Avid whiskey drinkers know about Maker's Mark's appeal. From its classic Kentucky Straight Bourbon to its various limited releases, you can't go wrong with anything from this popular brand. It's well-known for using wheat as a secondary grain, giving it a soft, smooth flavor profile. Recently, the brand announced that instead of simply launching another bourbon, it would lean into its use of wheat and release a new annual wheat whiskey.
Star Hill Farm Whisky

It's called Star Hill Farm Whisky, and it's the first wheat whiskey launched by the brand in its 70-year history. Named after the 1,100-acre farm that is home to the Maker's Mark Distillery, the first release will heavily feature the brand's popular soft red winter wheat. The whiskey is made up of two mash bills: 70% soft red winter wheat and 30% malted barley, and 100% malted soft red winter wheat. It's bottled at a potent 114.7-proof.

Jefferson’s Bourbon is launching a cask strength bourbon

Jefferson’s Bourbon is launching a new 130-proof whiskey

Whiskey glass

Jefferson's Bourbon has been innovating in the whiskey world since it was established back in 1997 by Trey Zoeller and his bourbon historian father, Chet. In the years since, it has launched a handful of award-winning, industry-changing whiskeys (especially its popular Jefferson's Ocean). Recently, it announced the launch of a new cask strength release.
Jefferson's Reserve Cask Strength

This new, limited-edition expression is a non-chill filtered, 130-proof bourbon that was matured for eight years in new, charred American oak barrels. According to Jefferson's Bourbon, the result is a multi-layered, balanced whiskey that begins with a nose of baked apple, rich vanilla, caramel, and toasted oak with a touch of leather. The palate is a symphony of flavors, including red fruit, vanilla beans, barrel spice, oak, and just a hint of toasted almonds. The finish is a warming blend of sweetness and oaky wood. Sip it neat or with a splash or two of water to open up the aromas and flavors.

Bowmore and Aston Martin are launching a 54-year old whisky

Bowmore is releasing a rare whisky that was distilled in 1968.

Bowmore

The worlds of luxury and single malt whisky are colliding once again with the release of Bowmore ARC-54, whisky five decades in the making. This timeless expression is the second and final release in the famed Islay distillery’s ARC series with Aston Martin.
Bowmore ARC-54

This rare single malt whisky is bottled in a handblown decanter that was inspired by the design of the Aston Martin Valkyrie. But while that’s spectacular in its own right, it’s the liquid inside that we’re most interested in. Distilled in 1968, it first matured for 54 years in second-fill European oak sherry butts and third-fill American oak hogsheads in the distillery’s No.1 vaults. Then the two whiskies were married together for fifteen months with a ratio of 61.8% European oak aged spirit and 38.2% American oak aged spirit.
