Maker’s Mark Champion Selection: Los Angeles Dodgers Edition

 Kentucky Straight Bourbon | Finished with 10 Oak Staves | Limited Edition 2024 World Champions Release

Process & Profile

This exclusive Champion Selection celebrates the Los Angeles Dodgers’ 2024 World Championship win. Created through Maker’s Mark’s signature Private Selection process, this limited-edition bourbon was customized by the Dodgers using a unique combination of 10 oak finishing staves. The result is a bold, high-proof expression that reflects the team’s spirit and Maker’s Mark’s commitment to flavor innovation.
