A distinctive cask strength bourbon (107-114 proof) that undergoes additional maturation with 10 virgin toasted American oak staves inserted directly into the barrel during its final months of aging. Following 2024's "The Heart Release" (which used just two French oak staves), this expression showcases a more pronounced wood influence while maintaining perfect balance with Maker's Mark's signature wheated bourbon profile. The result delivers a whiskey that's simultaneously wood-forward yet surprisingly fruit-rich and complex.
