Maker's Mark Cask Strength Bourbon debuted all the back in 2014. More than ten years after the fact, this offering got an upgrade of sorts from the iconic brand. At the beginning of 2026, Maker's Cask started appearing on the shelves with an age statement. This is a permanent change for the brand and every batch of Maker's Cask Strength Bourbon will carry an age statement that will be between 7-8 years old and proof will vary from 107-114. The bottle we taste and review for this episode is 7 years, 2 months old and comes in at 112.6proof. Even though we love a good age statement, we are always more concerned with how the whiskey tastes. Join us this week as we give our honest thoughts on this updated offering. We also compare it to it's non-age stated counterpart for the ultimate test. The results will surprise you.
