Maker’s Mark Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whisky Knicks Edition 1L

Description

Tasting Notes and Characteristics:

Warm tobacco and caramel drift up like a midwinter memory, pulling you into a sip that opens with toasted oak, brown sugar, and a ribbon of baking spice. Maker’s Mark Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whisky Knicks Edition 1L carries ABV 45.00%, is from the United States, and shows its bourbon identity through sweet corn-forward grain, vanilla, toasted cooper, and a long, gently smoky finish from time in new charred oak barrels. This bottle works beautifully alongside a square of dark chocolate to sharpen the cocoa bitterness or with smoky brisket to echo the meat’s char and amplify savory spices.

Producer Information: Maker’s Mark Distillery

Maker’s Mark Distillery in Loretto, Kentucky was reshaped in the 1950s when Bill Samuels Sr. acquired the old Burks’ distillery and, with Margie Samuels’ aesthetic touches, launched Maker’s Mark as a distinctly softer, wheated bourbon that emphasized approachable proof, small-batch attention and a signature hand-dipped red wax seal; the operation foregrounds limestone-filtered spring water, open fermentations and slow barrel aging on site to maintain a consistent Kentucky bourbon profile, and while still tied to its family-oriented origins the brand today sits within the Beam Suntory portfolio; in addition to its flagship bourbon the distillery produces bottlings such as Maker’s 46, Maker’s Mark Cask Strength and Maker’s Mark Private Selection, and leverages its Loretto location for visitor-focused tours and on-site maturation programs.
