Description

Maker's Mark 46 is a Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whisky that starts as fully matured Maker's Mark and is then finished with ten seared French oak staves. This process adds layers of flavor, resulting in a bolder, richer, and more complex whisky with notes of caramel, vanilla, and baking spice. It is the first new major expression since the classic Maker's Mark was released in 1958, and was named World's Best Finished Bourbon at the World Whiskies Awards 2026. [1, 5, 7, 9, 10]
