BEHIND THE BOTTLE

Maker’s Mark needs no introduction as one of the most iconic bourbons on the planet. But for Ylli, The Alaska Whisky Godfather, it represents something deeper: the creation that started it all.

Fiori D’Italia has long been a powerhouse in the whiskey world. Now celebrating its 30th anniversary, the restaurant has cemented its status as one of the Top 100 Whisky Bars in America and the premier destination in Alaska. With international acclaim and a fiercely loyal cult following, dedicating a barrel of Maker’s Mark to this milestone felt not just fitting- but necessary.

While Ylli’s previous Maker’s selection paid homage to the opening of Allocated (aptly named The New Chapter), this 30th Anniversary barrel stands apart. Built from the exact same bespoke stave recipe as his earlier picks, this release comes in at a higher proof. The profile, originally engineered through Maker’s Private Select to complement the bold flavors of Fiori’s legendary Old Fashioned, shines even brighter here.

But this release is also bittersweet. This is officially Ylli’s final Maker’s Mark Private Selection. The recipe is retiring, and the barrel series ends with this chapter. This is your last chance to secure a bottle of the profile that defined an era at Fiori. Once they’re gone, they’re gone forever.
