Each stave imparts a distinct flavor profile, which in combination, produces a whiskey that is truly one of a kind, every time. This particular barrel was finished in the following oak staves:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e1 Part Maker’s Mark 46 Oak Staves\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e4 Part Baked American Pure Staves\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e3 Part Roasted French Mendiant Oak Staves\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e2 Part Toasted French Spice Oak Staves\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis unique blend creates a flavor profile that blasts light buttery flavors and transitions to flavors of mocha and chocolate that become more vibrant with every sip paired with a good rye kick.

Leave No Trace.” To us this means bold, proactive, regenerative actions (Make Your Mark) coupled with comprehensive efforts to leave nothing harmful behind (Leave No Trace) – all to ensure that future generations inherit a world that’s even better than the one we did. We’ve dedicated ourselves to using business as a force for good, an approach we have in common with other B Corp companies.
