Tasting Notes

From the legendary bourbon maker, Makers 46 is noted for its process of adding seared oak planks to the barrels for additional aging. The result is more pronounced caramel, spice and vanilla flavours with a big finish.

The Producer

Maker's Mark

Maker's Mark, a bourbon whiskey crafted in Loretto, Kentucky, by Beam Suntory, boasts small-batch production. Bottled at 90 U.S. proof (45% ABV), it's distinctive for its squarish bottles sealed with red wax. The distillery is a notable stop on the American Whiskey Trail and the Kentucky Bourbon Trail, offering tours.

The brand's roots trace back to 1953 when T. William 'Bill' Samuels Sr. acquired Burks' Distillery. Production commenced in 1954, and the inaugural bottling occurred in 1958, featuring the iconic dipped red wax seal. Hiram Walker & Sons purchased Maker's Mark in 1981, later acquired by Allied Domecq in 1987. Following Pernod Ricard's acquisition of Allied Domecq in 2005, Maker's Mark found a new home with Fortune Brands.

Bill Samuels Jr., overseeing production after his father's creation, retired in 2011, passing the reins to his son, Rob Samuels. A pivotal moment in Maker's Mark history unfolded in 2013 when the company considered lowering the whiskey's alcohol strength due to supply issues. This decision triggered a backlash from customers, prompting a swift reversal on February 17. In 2014, Beam Inc. transitioned into Beam Suntory following its acquisition by Suntory, solidifying its position as the third-largest distilled spirits maker globally.
