Maker's Mark 2026 Release Star Hill Farm American Wheat Whiskey

Maker’s Mark’s Star Hill Farm 2026 release builds upon its soft red winter wheat — the signature grain of the Maker’s Mark mash bill — and layers in hard red and hard white wheat, revealing how diversity in the grain deepens flavour as it unfolds through distillation, maturation and blending.

And the result? A darker, denser aroma, a more complex flavour profile with amplified fruit, and proof that whisky simply tastes better when nature is treated well. Crafted from three different types of wheat and masterfully blended to create a complex but rounded whisky:

Soft Red Winter Wheat: Rich sweetness with cinnamon and fig notes.

Hard White Wheat: Silky texture with vibrant complexity.

Heirloom Hard Red: Fruity brightness with lingering spice.
