Overview

Star Hill Farm Whisky – Maker’s Mark’s First Wheat Whisky

A New Chapter in Kentucky Whiskey:  Star Hill Farm Whisky is a milestone release from Maker’s Mark, marking the brand’s first new mashbill in over 70 years. Distilled on the 1,100-acre Star Hill Farm estate in Loretto, Kentucky, this whisky is more than a new expression — it’s a statement of innovation, sustainability, and terroir-driven craftsmanship.

Grain-to-Glass Philosophy:  This whisky is the result of Maker’s commitment to regenerative agriculture. The mashbill eliminates corn entirely, blending two wheat-forward recipes: one of 70% soft red winter wheat / 30% malted barley, and another of 100% malted wheat. It’s matured in charred American oak and bottled at 114.7 proof (57.35% ABV), cask strength and non-chill filtered
