Maker's Mark 101

Where Maker’s Mark is made, they are still doing things just like they did in 1953. From the old letterpress to the way they hand-rotate every barrel and hand-dip every bottle.

There's an old saying at the distillery that goes, "If we could make it any faster, we wouldn't." Because at Maker's Mark, it's one bottle at a time. Every time. That's as true today as it was when the founders filled their first bottle. And since then, it's been a widely held belief around here that character isn't made by machine.

Nose: A perfect amount of intensity greets you on the nose. Apple, vanilla, and caramel swirl to create an inviting and pleasing aroma.

Palate: A touch sweet at first sip that quickly transitions into a spicy and oak-filled palate. Burnt caramel, vanilla, butterscotch, and toasted nut round out its flavour profile.

Finish: A strong cinnamon burst before transitioning into a dry and hot aftertaste. Lingering amounts of caramel, vanilla, and oak make for a very traditional tasting bourbon.
