Tasting Profile & Food Pairings
Little Book "The Infinite: Edition II" (2025 Release)
- Taste: A massive, oily mouthfeel. Expect cinnamon churros and caramel apple on the nose, leading to a palate of black raspberry, molasses, and plum, finishing with black cherry and heavy barrel char.
- Food Pairings: Dark Chocolate Ganache or Smoked Brisket. The high proof and dark fruit notes need rich, savory, or bitter companions to shine.
Maker’s Mark Private Selection
- Taste: Because each barrel is a custom "recipe" of staves, the taste varies. However, most focus on toasted marshmallow, baking spices (clove/cinnamon), and rich butterscotch. It lacks the "rye burn" of other bourbons, offering a creamy, honeyed texture instead.
- Food Pairings: Aged Gouda or Pecan Pie. The wheated profile and toasted oak staves are a natural match for nutty cheeses and caramelized desserts.
About the brand
Little Book (The Noe Family): Created by 8th-generation Master Distiller Freddie Noe, Little Book is an annual series of limited-release, uncut, and unfiltered blends. Named after the nickname his grandfather, the legendary Booker Noe, gave him, the brand is Freddie’s playground for innovation. "The Infinite" series specifically uses a "perpetual blend" method (similar to a Solera), where a portion of each year's masterpiece is held back to be married with future generations, ensuring the "DNA" of the original release lives on forever.
Maker’s Mark (Private Selection Program): While Maker’s Mark is famous for its consistent red-wax wheated bourbon, the Private Selection program is where the distillery becomes a laboratory. This program allows for the creation of "custom" bourbons by taking fully matured cask-strength Maker's Mark and finishing it for nine additional weeks in a single barrel with 10 custom wood staves. With 1,001 possible combinations, these bottles represent the ultimate expression of how different oak types—from toasted French spice to seared American oak—can transform a classic spirit.
