Description

Maker’s Mark FAE-02 Wood Finishing Series Limited Release Kentucky Straight Bourbon, released in Fall 2021, is a sophisticated and delicate counterpart to FAE-01. Crafted using advanced wood-stave finishing techniques and no-chill filtration, FAE-02 captures dark woody notes and hues. Made from double heat-treated virgin French Oak staves and fully-matured cask strength, it is NAS whisky with a mash bill of 70% corn, 16% soft red winter wheat, and 14% malted barley. Released in limited quantities, FAE-02 is a testament to the distillery’s commitment to quality and collectability.
