Private Selection is created by adding 10 custom wood finishing staves to each barrel. It’s then aged in a limestone cellar to extract a unique, flavorful taste profile. 
Instead of picking a single barrel and bottling it as-is or to a specific proof, we created our own unique bourbon (sort of).
This Maker’s Mark Private Select was selected by Nestor Liquor in San Diego, California, and uses the following 10 staves. 
STAVE PROFILE
6 Baked American Pure
