We aimed to craft our latest Maker's Mark Private Selection as a fitting tribute to the Angus Barn for our 65th anniversary. Like the Barn, "Angus Barn 65" is warm, welcoming, and distinguished. It opens sweet on the nose, with aromas of buttery pancakes, Bosc pear and golden raisins. The palate introduces dry oak notes, allspice, and clove, and a lingering, sweet heat rounds out the finish.
Be among the first to taste Angus Barn 65 and enjoy a gourmet 5 course bourbon paired dinner inspired by the legendary Maker’s Mark®.
