Rather than releasing one fixed profile across the line, Maker’s Mark allows each participating group to shape a distinct flavor direction through its stave combination, which is what gives private selections like this one their own identity while still keeping the signature Maker’s Mark wheated bourbon core.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"819\" data-end=\"1466\"\u003eAt 110.4 proof, this pick sits comfortably in the richer cask-strength range for Private Selection releases and is designed for those looking for a fuller sipping experience with more depth than standard Maker’s Mark. The wheated mash bill keeps the profile rounder and softer than a rye-forward bourbon, while the finishing staves can push the whiskey toward darker sweetness, baking spice, oak, and layered richness. For those looking for a Maker’s Mark private pick, a cask-strength wheated bourbon, or a Now Boarding exclusive bourbon selection, this bottle stands out as a more limited and personalized expression of the Maker’s Mark profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1468\" data-end=\"1487\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1468\" data-end=\"1485\"\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"1488\" data-end=\"1847\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1dkp5qq\" data-start=\"1488\" data-end=\"1554\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"1490\" data-end=\"1499\"\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e caramel, vanilla, toasted oak, and warm baking spice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"nug7ks\" data-start=\"1555\" data-end=\"1650\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"1557\" data-end=\"1568\"\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e rich toffee, layered sweetness, oak, and rounded wheat-driven bourbon character\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"y769ac\" data-start=\"1651\" data-end=\"1751\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"1653\" data-end=\"1668\"\u003eMid-palate:\u003c\/strong\u003e fuller texture with deeper wood influence, soft spice, and concentrated richness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"2eu7u\" data-start=\"1752\" data-end=\"1847\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"1754\" data-end=\"1765\"\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e long, warm, and polished with lingering oak, sweetness, and cask-strength depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1849\" data-end=\"1876\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1849\" data-end=\"1874\"\u003eWhat Makes It Special\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"1877\" data-end=\"2389\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"10hc9ko\" data-start=\"1877\" data-end=\"1955\"\u003ePrivate Selection pick created through Maker’s Mark’s custom stave program\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"y8ai6s\" data-start=\"1956\" data-end=\"2017\"\u003eBottled at 110.4 proof for a fuller cask-strength profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1ekp76l\" data-start=\"2018\" data-end=\"2103\"\u003eBuilt from fully matured Maker’s Mark bourbon finished with 10 custom wood staves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"ymsjga\" data-start=\"2104\" data-end=\"2188\"\u003eUses Maker’s Mark’s signature wheated bourbon base for a softer, rounder profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"18e191o\" data-start=\"2189\" data-end=\"2270\"\u003eA more limited and distinctive expression than standard Maker’s Mark releases\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1x11b28\" data-start=\"2271\" data-end=\"2389\"\u003eStrong fit for those looking for private pick bourbon, Maker’s Mark store picks, and cask-strength wheated whiskey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2391\" data-end=\"2950\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2391\" data-end=\"2407\"\u003eHow to Enjoy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"2407\" data-end=\"2410\"\u003eMaker's Mark Bourbon Private Selection by Now Boarding is best enjoyed neat first so the proof, texture, and finishing-stave influence can fully open in the glass.
