Maker's Mark Star Hill Farm American Wheat Whisky 2025

Introducing the first-ever American wheat whisky from Makers Mark: Star Hill Farm Whisky. Crafted at the legendary distillerys home in Loretto, Kentucky, this debut release is a bold step into new territorycapturing grain-to-glass character while honoring the rhythms of nature and the land that shapes it.

The 2025 release marries two distinct mashbills: one with 70% soft red winter wheat and 30% malted barley, the other made entirely from malted wheat. The result is a deeply expressive whisky that showcases the richness of the grain and the craft behind every drop.

Aromatically, its sweet and subtlestrawberries, raspberries, vanilla, caramel, and warm wheat bread lead into hints of fresh leather and powdered sugar. On the palate, rich notes of blackberry jam, buttered pastry, and silky vanilla unfold. The malted wheat gives it a luscious, creamy mouthfeel, with integrated tannins and a polished texture. The finish is long and evolving, with layers of berry compote, dark chocolate, and a cool touch of spearmint.

Crafted in harmony with the land, Star Hill Farm Whisky is born from regenerative agriculturea farming method that restores soil health, promotes biodiversity, and avoids synthetic inputs. Makers Marks commitment to the Regenerative Alliance is helping reshape American agriculture, with a mission to transform over 1 million acres into more sustainable, flavor-rich farmland.

This is more than just whiskyits a promise to the future of farming, and a stunning new direction from one of Americas most iconic distilleries.
