Discover the Star Hill Farm Whisky 2025 Release
Introducing the Star Hill Farm Whisky 2025 Release, a limited-edition American wheat whiskey from the renowned Maker’s Mark Distillery. This inaugural release is a milestone, being the first-ever wheat whisky crafted by Maker’s Mark. Aged for six years in charred oak barrels and bottled at a robust 114.7 proof, this whiskey offers a bold yet balanced tasting experience.
Crafted on the historic grounds of Star Hill Farm in Loretto, Kentucky, this whiskey is made from two distinct wheat mashbills. The first features 70% soft red winter wheat and 30% malted barley, while the second is 100% malted wheat. By eliminating corn, Maker’s Mark highlights the gentle sweetness and creamy mouthfeel of wheat grain. The result is a uniquely rich whiskey that marries the sweetness of winter wheat with malty depth.
Tasting Notes
Upon pouring, Star Hill Farm Whisky greets you with a rich, inviting aroma of buttery caramel, golden raisins, and warm gingerbread. On the palate, it unfolds layers of honeyed toffee, chocolate-covered cherries, and a hint of apple pie spice. The finish is smooth and enveloping, with toasted pecans and soft cinnamon lingering pleasantly on the tongue.
