Heritage

The Lost Recipe Series from Maker’s Mark celebrates creativity, experimentation, and the rich archive of stave selections that have shaped the distillery’s history. Each edition revives a stave profile from the past, allowing bourbon enthusiasts to experience unique flavors that would otherwise remain hidden.

The 2025 Edition 2: Archived Stave Mocha continues this journey with a bold, limited release that highlights one of Maker’s Mark’s most intriguing stave combinations. Crafted with the brand’s innovative stave-finishing process, this edition layers complexity onto Maker’s signature wheated bourbon foundation. The Mocha stave profile, carefully chosen from the archives, emphasizes deeper, roasted notes and showcases how wood influence can transform bourbon character in unexpected ways.

As with every Maker’s Mark special edition, this bottling is handcrafted in Loretto, Kentucky, and presented in the brand’s iconic wax-sealed 750 mL bottle. What makes the Lost Recipe Series unique is its connection to innovation—each release uncovers part of the experimental heritage that helped build Maker’s Mark’s reputation as one of America’s most respected bourbon houses.

Produced in limited quantities, the 2025 Edition 2 is both a collectible and an opportunity to taste bourbon history reimagined. It bridges past and present, allowing fans to experience how archival recipes and stave profiles continue to inspire new generations of whiskey making.

Tasting Profile & Food Pairings

Tasting Notes

The Maker’s Mark Lost Recipe Series: Edition 2 (2025 Release), featuring the Archived Stave: Mocha, opens with a bold, distinctive aromatic profile. The nose reveals roasted coffee beans, dark cocoa, and warm oak, layered with vanilla and subtle dried fruit. On the palate, it is rich and textured, delivering flavors of espresso, toasted almond, molasses, and charred oak balanced by the soft, sweet undertones of Maker’s wheated mashbill. Mid-palate complexity develops, with hints of caramelized sugar and spice, leading to a lingering finish of mocha, vanilla bean, and seasoned wood that reflects both innovation and tradition.

Food Pairings

This release pairs beautifully with dishes that complement its roasted and chocolate-driven character. Starters such as smoked meats or spiced charcuterie echo its depth of cocoa and coffee tones. For the main course, it enhances braised short ribs, grilled lamb, or venison, where its mocha and oak profile harmonizes with robust, savory flavors. Strong cheeses like blue cheese or aged Gouda highlight their layered sweetness and spice, while desserts such as flourless chocolate cake, tiramisu, or espresso panna cotta amplify their rich mocha and roasted undertones.

Craftsmanship

Maker’s Mark has been handcrafting bourbon in Loretto, Kentucky, since 1953, when Bill Samuels Sr. set out to create a smoother, more approachable whiskey using a wheated mashbill instead of the traditional rye. Every bottle is still produced at the same distillery, in small batches, and aged to taste rather than by time, ensuring consistency and quality across generations.

The brand is instantly recognizable for its iconic red wax–dipped bottles, a symbol of tradition and craftsmanship that remains unchanged for decades. Beyond the flagship Original Bourbon, Maker’s Mark continues to innovate with experimental stave finishes, cellar-aged releases, and limited editions that push the boundaries of flavor while staying true to its approachable, balanced style.

Today, Maker’s Mark stands as one of the most respected bourbon houses in the world, admired for its heritage, its dedication to quality, and its unique ability to honor tradition while embracing creativity.
