Maker's Mark 46 Kentucky Bourbon Whisky, 70cl

Product Information

After over a decade in its original packaging, the new bottle better aligns with the visual identity comprising the full Maker’s Mark suite and better clarifies what makes the Maker’s 46 liquid special – French oak – while making clear to consumers that the liquid they love has not changed by so much as a drop. Instead of the paper label, Maker’s Mark 46 is a clear bottle with the color of the Maker’s Mark label used as the color of the font. Excerpt: I find none of the gritty, aluminum, aspartame notes from the standard 46 release, and this is a winner.

The added oak stave and extra maturation time reduces the alcohol burn that I find annoying and adds some unique notes to the aroma. So tasting these side by side, even though Maker’s Mark distillery started the process with the same mash bill, they are wildly different bourbons. It’s said that Bill Sanders didn’t have enough time to distill and age each batch to pick a “winner” for his new production line, so instead he made a loaf of bread from each and decided based on which one tasted better. The water used for Maker’s Mark is filtered naturally through limestone in the distillery’s own personal watershed. This is the epitome of what most people think of when they think of what a bourbon tastes like, which makes sense because bourbon is a trendsetter and has been since its creation.Margie chose that too, taking her inspiration from 19th-century cognac bottles, which she also used to design the bottle shape itself! By more boldly leading with descriptions of ‘French oaked,’ Bourbon drinkers new and old can understand what flavor profiles they can expect to find behind the label. All reviews are evaluated within the context of their specific spirit classification as specified above.

For instance, she is a ghost recipe developer for the unofficial Disney cookbook and the upcoming Epcot edition. It is the bourbon that made me fall in love with bourbon; a regular whiskey in my cocktails and my glass.The Roman numeral for four symbolizes Bill Samuels’ being the fourth-generation distiller of his family. The Maker’s Mark 46 process begins where the inspiration for the new bourbon also came from, Maker’s Mark.

In the end, I wouldn’t say either of these falls short of expectations, and I can’t say enough how much I like both of them.If you think you may have an alcohol problem please contact the SAMHSA national helpline to get assistance. Excerpt: All that said, the flavors are nice but don’t have the same depth and richness as the nose – a bit of a letdown. There’s a good bit of caramel and vanilla to balance out the bitterness of the ginger beer, and there’s a touch of oak-y flavor that comes through to add some extra special something to the mix. The normal Maker’s Mark bottle is mostly wrapped in paper, but in this case the deep amber color of the liquid inside is on full display.
