Maker's Mark whiskey is typically bottled at 90 proof, which means it contains 45% alcohol by volume (ABV). This higher proof contributes to its rich flavor profile while maintaining the smoothness for which it is known.

It depends on the barrel.
Makers Mark whiskey is crafted primarily from corn, which makes up about 70% of its mash bill. The remaining ingredients include barley and red winter wheat, which contributes to its smooth flavor profile. The whiskey is distilled and then aged in charred oak barrels, enhancing its distinctive taste. Additionally, it is known for its signature hand-dipped red wax seal.
Maker's Mark whiskey does not contain added sugar in its production process. However, like many bourbons, it may have some residual sugars from the fermentation of the grains used in its mash bill, primarily corn. This can contribute to the whiskey's overall flavor profile, giving it a slightly sweet taste, but it does not have sugar added to it.

Whiskey has varying proof levels depending on the specific whiskey. What I can tell you not knowing the specific whiskey, is that aged Irish whiskey (whisky that is barreled for aging) is at proofs varying from 124 to 150 proof. The whiskey will lose some alcoholic strength as they mature. American whiskies are barreled at 105 to 110 prof which is between 53 and 55% alcohol. As these whiskies mature their alcoholic strength increases. The reason Irish whiskey reduces is alcoholic levels is because the maturing barrels are stored under humid conditions while American whiskies alcoholic strength increases is because their maturing vessels are stored under warm, dry conditions. Scottish Whisky is 40% proof.
