Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and prepare a roasting pan with a roasting rack.

Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern.

Place the ham cut side down on the roasting rack, cover with aluminum foil, and bake for 1.5 hours.

Prepare the glaze by combining maple syrup, bourbon, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, cinnamon, cloves, black pepper, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat for 5-7 minutes.

After 1.5 hours, remove the ham from the oven, uncover and brush the glaze over it.

Return the ham to the oven for an additional 30 minutes, basting every 10 minutes until it reaches 140°F (60°C).

If desired, stud the ham with whole cloves during the last 15 minutes of cooking.

Allow the ham to rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing.

Slice and serve the ham, drizzling any remaining glaze over the slices.
