Well, this whiskey series is back, and to be honest it’s in a pretty similar shape and form as far as concept, although the bottle got a redesign. All that being said, the first release is a good bourbon that shows just how much the use of wood staves to finish the whiskey can affect the flavor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/robbreport.com\/food-drink\/spirits\/makers-marks-new-wood-finishing-series-bourbon-1234753656\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-ylk=\"slk:Wood Finishing Series;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link\" data-rapid_p=\"10\" data-v9y=\"1\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eWood Finishing Series\u003c\/a\u003e is essentially a collection of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/robbreport.com\/food-drink\/spirits\/ex-makers-mark-master-distiller-and-blender-launch-new-distillery-potter-jane-distlling-company-1234900626\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-ylk=\"slk:Maker’s Mark;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link\" data-rapid_p=\"11\" data-v9y=\"1\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMaker’s Mark\u003c\/a\u003e bourbons that have been finished with custom cooked and designed wood staves, which are inserted directly into the barrel for a set period of time. The whiskey is “aged to taste,” according to the distillery team, which means a minimum of six years, and then the whiskey is finished with French oak staves. The 2024 expression, the Heart Release, was finished with two different kinds of staves that were cooked in different ways. Ten staves of the first type were placed in mature cask-strength Maker’s Mark to finish for five weeks in the distillery’s limestone cellar. That same process was then repeated for the second stave type, but finished for nine weeks, and the two whiskies were then blended together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"SWS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53832230011243,"sku":"085246502563","price":192.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/3091\/2619\/files\/Maker_sMarkIsFinishingItsNewLimited-EditionBourbonWithFrenchOakStaves.jpg?v=1788973527","url":"https:\/\/pelicangrillpensacola.com\/products\/makers-mark-is-finishing-its-new-limited-edition-bourbon-with-french-oak-staves-2024-750ml","provider":"Pelican Grill","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
