Description
One of Eddie’s favorites. This one 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 the bourbon to taste, not time. Each and every bottle of Maker’s is still hand-dipped in a signature red wax at the distillery in Loretto, Ky., just like Bill, Sr., would have wanted.
Woody oak, caramel, vanilla and wheat prevail in the nose.
Taste is sweet and balanced with caramel, vanilla and fruity essences.
Smooth and subtle finish.
