Makers Mark 750mL

Maker’s Mark uses wheat in place of rye to build a softer bourbon profile around cherry, vanilla and caramel. A creamy texture and gentle spice make the original expression equally useful neat or in a Whiskey Sour.

Key details

• Origin: Kentucky, USA
• Kentucky straight bourbon
• Wheated mash bill

Flavor profile

Bright fruit and sweet oak lead into vanilla and caramel, finishing with a creamy texture and soft spice.

Pairing & serving

Serve neat, over a large cube or in a Whiskey Sour. Try with roast pork, pecans or mild aged cheese. No decanting needed.

After opening & when to enjoy

Keep upright, tightly closed, away from heat and sunlight. The spirit is ready to enjoy and does not continue barrel aging in the bottle. After opening, aim to enjoy within about a year for the freshest aroma, especially as the bottle empties.
