The Wood Finishing Series from Maker's Mark rolls on and we are here for it. For this week's short, we taste and review the most current release in this series. Released in March 2026, the Maker's Stewards release is a limited-edition, cask-strength bourbon (approx. 109.6–113.3 proof) honoring the distillery’s operations team at Star Hill Farm.
