Maker's Mark 46 and the Genius of Margie Samuels
Manage episode 423375092 series 3579480
Maker's Mark 46 is a wheated bourbon that undergoes a unique finishing process. It is made by adding 10 French oak staves to a barrel of Maker's Mark bourbon and leaving it in a limestone cave for a longer period of time. Margie Samuels, the wife of the original Maker's Mark creator, Bill, played a significant role in the brand's development, including designing the labels and introducing the iconic red wax seal. We think Maker's Mark 46 has a toastier and richer flavour compared to the original Maker's Mark, with notes of buttery bread and French oak. It is a smooth and easy-drinking bourbon that is a unique expression.
