Maker's Mark Bourbon Whisky, 750 mL, 90 Proof

Maker's Mark, a bourbon created by Bill Samuels, Sr. to be a whisky that he himself would enjoy drinking, is a smooth and approachable spirit with an easy finish - a stark contrast to the hot and harsh whiskies that "blow your ears off," a revolutionary idea at the time. Crafted slowly in small batches at our National Historic Landmark distillery in Loretto, Kentucky, Maker's Mark Bourbon Whisky is made using soft red winter wheat instead of the typical rye, resulting in a one-of-a-kind, full-flavored bourbon that is effortless to drink.

To ensure consistency, we manually rotate every barrel and age our bourbon to taste, not merely to time. Remarkably smooth and balanced, Maker's Mark boasts notes of caramel and vanilla, with a front-of-palate finish. While it can enhance any cocktail, many still prefer to enjoy it on its own or over ice with a splash of water, as the lack of bitterness or sharpness allows the bourbon's true character to shine.
