Maker’s Mark Tasting

Makers Mark original is the one that changed the way we think of bourbon, all because one man changed the way he thought about making it. Bill Samuels, Sr., simply wanted a whisky he would enjoy drinking. Never bitter or sharp, Maker’s Mark^® is made with soft red winter wheat, instead of the usual rye, for a one-of-a-kind, full-flavored bourbon that’s easy to drink. To ensure consistency, they rotate every barrel by hand and age our bourbon to taste, not time. Each and every bottle of Maker’s^® is still hand-dipped in their signature red wax at their distillery in Loretto, Ky., just like Bill, Sr., would have wanted.
