The nose is subtle with candy corn, spice and vanilla. Mouth feel is extremely creamy accentuating fresh fruits, vanilla, & brow sugar. Medium finish with 'second' tastes including baking spice, oak, and apple.
NOSE: That unforgettable Maker’s Mark bourbon spice hits first with waves of caramel, cinnamon, malt & vanilla cream pie coming in one after another.
TASTE: Maker’s Mark bourbon spice, caramel, vanilla, cherries and a hint of citrus. There is a slight nuttiness that resides in this whisky.
BALANCE BODY FEEL: Good balance with a medium body. Smooth and easy to drink neat or on the rocks with a nice warming sensation going down.
FINISH: Long dry finish of oak, caramel and a hint of corn.
Maker's Mark Description
Established in 1954 by Bill Samuels Sr, Maker's Mark is one of the nation's best selling bourbons. The majority of bourbons are made with a percentage of rye in the mashmill, but this is a wheated bourbon that replaces rye with red winter wheat. The resulting bourbon retains a rich flavor while reducing the burning sensation.
Wine Enthusiast: 90 Points
The base aroma is buttered corn-on-the-cob with aeration bringing additional scents of vanilla and cinnamon. The palate entry showcases sweet breakfast cereal grain; at midpalate the corn dominates so thoroughly that you know that this could only be one of the best straight bourbons from Kentucky. Ends spirity and heated. One of America’s benchmark spirits.
