Star Hill Farm

An exciting new venture from Maker’s Mark has arrived.

It’s all about wheat, wood, and water.

The inaugural release in a brand new annual series from Maker's Mark has arrived! Star Hill Farm boldly reinvents the brand’s signature approach to flavour under the guidance of master distiller Blake Layfield, inspired by nature’s role in whisky-making, focusing on wheat, wood, and water.

Amplifying the already wheat-forward profile of Maker's Mark, this whisky forgoes corn completely, marrying two wheat-heavy mash bills and making it the star of the show with a creamy, full-bodied profile, packed with buttery pastry, caramel, and baking spice.

The brand is B Corp certified, sourcing all the wheat used in its whisky from within a 60-mile radius of the distillery, and its bottles boast a natural cork closure and a thick, textured label made from recycled wheat fibres and label paper waste.

Star Hill Farm

This inaugural release is a marriage of two mash bills: one featuring 70% soft red winter wheat and 30% malted barley, and the other made from 100% malted soft red winter wheat. It’s the first Maker’s Mark whisky to forgo corn entirely, making its signature style of wheat the star of the show. Expect a smooth, rich profile with layers of sweet grain, soft spice, and gentle oak influence.
