Maker’s Mark World Wood Collection: Expedition 01

World Wood Collection is an innovative series of whiskies inspired by the global journeys of our Blenders and their exploration of whisky-making traditions and techniques around the world. Expedition 01 marks a first for Maker’s Mark: three whiskies individually finished with oak from three distinct origins - Japanese Mizunara, French oak, and American white oak - before being expertly blended together. The result is a soft, complex whisky with sweet fruit notes and a signature velvety mouthfeel.

Expedition 01 explores how oak from different parts of the world can shape the character and flavor of whisky. Each oak brings its own distinctive influence, coming together to create a complex and beautifully balanced whisky.

  • Japanese Mizunara oak contributes delicate floral notes and subtle umami complexity.
  • American white oak delivers sweet vanilla notes, brightness and a rounded character.
  • French oak introduces warm baking spice, caramel richness and an elegant, lingering finish.
