- Sometimes, a good, old-fashioned glass of Kentucky bourbon - or a delicious cocktail made from the stuff - is just what the doctor ordered to take the edge off after a long day. And whether you're a boozy newbie or a decorated drinker, it's hard to go wrong with Maker's Mark. The bourbon is one of the most popular and beloved options out there, even managing to score a top-five spot in 2020's best-selling American whiskey brands. But even those familiar with the liquor and the distillery that produces it might need to brush up on their trivia. That's why you need to watch this before taking another sip of Maker's Mark.

What are your thoughts on Maker's Mark?
I prefer Scotch.
Had some recently redeeming my free drinks at the bar in a hotel. Was surprisingly good.
I like the wood finishing series and the other cask strength stuff. I don’t go for the lower proof stuff too often.
MM is choice for bourbon
I like it working on a bottle right now.
While I’m not much of a bourbon connoisseur, I do have fond nostalgic memories of Markers Mark. As a child I grew up in Loretto KY and lived just a few miles from the distillery. In summer months I would ride my bmx bike to the distillery and jump in on the tours and partake in the refreshing lemonade and cookies they had back then. I had family and family friends that were employed there so I knew a lot of the employees. Being at the distillery felt like home in a sense to me. Still to this day it’s one of the most beautiful places I’ve experienced. I highly recommend touring Makers Mark distillery. Makers Mark will always hold a place in my heart because of those memories.
Take a tiny sip of #46 on a cool autumn day. Perfection. I hated bourbon until I tried that stuff.
I have visited the Maker's Mark distillery many times. The entire property is just lovely. On one visit some years back down, I bought a bottle of a product I don't think they offer any longer and it was only available at the distillery. They offered a "white dog" non barrel aged version of MM. It offers the raw taste of their Bourbon before barrel aging. It makes a good, almost neutral spirit. I nurse the bottle since I only bought one of them, but it makes for a good base for clear based cocktails.
Moonshine.
A side story to this, a local bar I go to years ago advertised that a employee from Makers Mark distillery was going to be their one Sunday night and we could get a bottle resealed with the red wax. So I was looking in my liquor cabinet and I had a full 1/2 gallon then right behind it I found another 1/2 gallon that had about 1 inch of whiskey left in it, great. And this was the only time I know of in my state that a bar would allow a patron bring in to a bar their own whiskey bottle. So I brought my 1/2 gallon down and the employee had a big electric pot with the red official wax and I got my bottle resealed and it looks like it came right from the distillery that way. Also we had the opportunity/ choice of getting a whiskey drinking glass, round or hexagon shape the bottom of the glass also dipped into the red wax. It was a fun night. I sat their and small talked with the employee for several hours after that. I don’t remember his name but the bars name was Holmans bar in Portland, Or.
There. Not their. You made the same mistake twice. The grammar police have spoken. LOL!
@@sourcecode5273 spell check sucks. (LoL)
Very cool! When you visit the distillery they let you dip your own bottle in the wax.
@@jgray7346 I would totally give my bottle a slam dunk
First time I had Makers was at Keenland Horse Track with a roast beef sandwich that they serve there. I have been a fan since. Tasty stuff. I appreciate their commitment to quality and staying to the their roots, recipes and serving the local economy. Something to be proud of. Admirable.
I love Maker's Mark. I first tried it a few years ago. A very lovely lady bought me my first shot on my b- day.
I hauled lots of Makers Mark back in the 70s The Ky distilleries kept my truck working.
Back then the plant was very small and the road going in was so small my truck took up most of the road.
The distilleries were like going back in time when you arrived to the small quaint places.
Knock off the background noise1,
yeah, but not if it means more than just 'bak groud' I think it's shit too 🙂🙂😃😃
What a presentable concise story of Maker’s Mark history and a speedy Gonzales narrator to boot! Keep it up!
I love bourbon whiskey straight. Funny in the 50s Makers Mark was $7. You are lucky to find a bottle for around $50. today. I am enjoying a glass or two this evening with a nice cigar. Shalom
My daughter had a wedding in March of this year in London , the chosen whiskey was makers mark .
In England makers mark is hardly known as a brand but I can tell you the feedback we got from the guests was amazing , they all wanted to know more about it and where we got it from .
Probably one of the best whiskey on the market right now .
I have shared MM with friends and it seem that everyone has the same reaction......marinade some chicken breast with some simple BBQ sauce and grill it....also great
Prohibition killed a lot good whiskey recipes. My dad made very good sour mash.
Could not call it Bourbon. It was made in Tennessee
Made only twice a year when the temperature was just right.
I got to taste it. But I was not old enough to know how.
He said he would teach me when I turned 21. He died when I was 19.
I am 75 now and wish I knew the recipe.
Where you got it from...? Tescos for instance.
Hi thanks for your reply , I don't know exactly because my son in law organized the drinks , all I can tell you is the drinks came from a drinks wholesaler in south London , I can find out the name of the company if you want me to , cheers .
@@roddychristodoulou9111 No, what I actually meant was it's freely available here in the UK and Tescos is one of our big supermarkets, like Kroger, Albertson etc in the US. I'm fond of Maker's Mark; it's certainly my favourite of the Bourbons that are on sale here in the UK.
Though I have never learned to love Maker’s Mark, Maker’s 46 is my favorite wheated bourbon..
The great part about starting your own bourbon brand is that you get to make up your own history! My favorite day to day bourbon and have visited the distillery many times. Funny how the story has changed over the 30+ years that I have been visiting. On my first visit the gift shop was in the old home and you couldn't taste or buy bourbon there.
Any examples?
@@billrom795 the whole story about burning the family recipe and then baking loaves of bread with different grain bills to find the new whiskey recipe. Another version of the story is that he went to Papa and told him he wanted to make a bourbon like Old Fitzgerald so Papa gave him the recipe and a jug of yeast. You pick the one you like...
@@altongehringer9858 They should pick 1 story and agree to stick with that one
I've been drinking Maker's Mark since I was 14 I'll be 54 in this November. it's still going down smooth. There's nothing better once you've had the best.
I've taken the tour, if you can take it, it's worth it. My dad was born there, they are great people.
My favorite bourbon for 30+ years. In fact, I didn't particularly care for bourbon before I tried MM. Now there are many I like, and most are somehow more..."bourbony"...but I still like Maker's best.
Boy Oh boy! I am so glad I WatchedThis Before Taking Another Sip Of Maker's Markwatched. Now I am informed and I will definetly not take another sip of Maker's Mark again.
I discovered Maker's Mark in the early-1990's at a nightclub on a summer Saturday night. It's been my "go-to" ever since - neat, on the rocks, with soda, and in cocktails, preferably a Manhattan.
My father LOVED Maker's Mark and it was always in his liquor cabinet, beginning back in the late 1960s when he retired from the army in Kentucky. Wasn't it only available initially in a limited number of states back then?
Some time in the early 70s, there was a "101" version, a higher proof. I didn't care for it, too caustic-feeling going down. Their standard version is the best version. It is unique! Wild Turkey is pretty good, too, I think. I'm not a whiskey drinker nowadays but any time I see a bottle, I think of my dad!
i like Makers Mark Whiskey, it's the one i buy now, as it is the closest to Wild Turkey 101. i live in northern BC and the Wild Turkey you get in BC liquor stores is not anywhere near the same as in the states. Makers Mark is a true and excellent alternative.
Makers and Woodford Reserve if I’m drinking Bourbon.
i,m from the uk & i tried maker's mark for the 1st time last week & now i,m a Big fan i bought my 2nd bottle today
Ain't no hangover like bourbon.....idc what brand it is. If I smell bourbon It will take me right back to this hangover I had 10 years ago. Never forgot that one
Makers Mark is an excellent place to visit and tour! Take the time and take the "whiskey Road " tour, it's well worth the time and travel! And while there head on into Tennessee! I am an Ambassador for Markers Mark!!
Been to this beautiful distillery, and have a couple bottles with my name on the label!
The BOTTLE can be used to make a nice lamp with a miniature light bulb !
Yeah Japan bought out a lot of liquor from the US.
I'm not mad, in fact japanese whiskey is my second favorite whiskey
GOOD! Maybe they can make ethanol out of rice to power my Yamaha.
(It's a rice burner you know. See what I did there?
Ok, that was a lame dad joke. I'll show myself to the door.)
When I was in Kentucky working my point of contact was a big Makers Mark fan. He knew that I could buy it much cheaper at the on post Class 6 store. I will never forget the day i bought a case of it and it got stolen out of my car. Never figured out who did it. He is long since gone, but he went out smiling
I knew there was a reason I liked Maker's Mark. It's great booze.
Excellent infomercial.
"God son of Jim Beam" That is a neat piece of Trivia. Nice share Thanks!
This was awesome informative video 👌👌
Maker's Mark is one of my go to's But I'll watch this anyway
Now that, was an interesting video. I'd love to take that tour.
Shout out to my Buddy Denny Potter ! Makers Mark master distiller.
Also. Maker’s Mark cigars are absolutely fantastic.
$20 a ticket for visiting and $850 to stay overnight. Crazy.
I tried Makers Mark. I like it neat. Will purchase again.
Good on you, that is the proper way to sip whiskey.
Regular Maker’s Mark is really nice. #46 is angel tears. Glorious.
cask strength is my favorite bourbon :D
Great ver view of a historic bourbon
Just love my MM & MM46.
Try MM Cask Strength, it's legit
Just got my first bottle of MM. Love it.
The first time I ever tried it was on a plane. Before then my only foray into bourbon was Jack Daniel’s, which I really don’t like. I normally drank Crown Royal but it wasn’t available. Makers gave me a whole new look at bourbon.
Neither Jack nor Crown are bourbons
My parents took me on a tour with them through Markers Mark in 1979. I took an empty Maker's Mark flask sealed with wax to my First grade Show and Tell, even my teacher thought ir was cool. Times have changed but I don't think the Bourbon has.
Good flavor for sipping with just the right kick.
The only thing I think of with Makers Mark is the Depp/Heard contriversy.
That lost in translation movie clip made this video worth watching. Its one of the funniest movie moments every because it comically highlights the formal Japanese conservation conventions that make for very verbose interactions lol :) obsession a cultural icon in Japan & part of why I love Japan! The pursuit of excellence in all things, with the spirit of the Samurai warrior. Exceptional Japanese woodworking without nail or screw. Exceptional Japanese swords & knives. Exceptional automobiles from Toyota / Lexus -- beautiful language & art & science & technology & a very complex deep culture & cultural history of trade & commerce. I think Japan the coolest country in the world!
It's pretty cool when they make a superbowl winners wax colors on there bottles. I have three seahawks bottles in blue and green.
What a great video!
Good stuff.
One of the Best tours ever.
Never did but I’m looking forward to it very soon
Best AA video I've watched today. Can I get you guys to sign my slip?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Making it happen on all levels .... Cheers .... Circa 2022
Excellent Whiskey
I love a good bourbon. There's something richly American about it's. It's deep and woodsy and sweet and smoky. And it's the strongest and the boldest of the brownest of the brown Liquors.🤤 personally my favorite ship is Belle Meade Sherry Cask bourbon aged 9 years.
Would have bought Makers Mark for my bourbon glazed carrots had I known more about them. Well worth it.
Maker's Mark ... Enough said ...
The makers mark we get here in Australia is only 40%.
I can't help but feel ripped off.
Dude that's messed up that's got to mess with the flavor. Come visit and take some home😁
Considering the best MM release is Maker's Mark Cask Strength that comes in between 106 and 110-ish proof... A regular $39.99 shelf bottle here. I'd feel improperly exported to as well! lol
Is it only 80pr due to country regulation? That sucks esp since the standard MM isn't great to begin with. The 46 and Cask 46 are incredible (better than the regular cask imo) as are the special releases like FAE01 and FAE02 that I'm guessing you won't see there either 😢
@@philc1884 it's probably more to do with how Australia taxes alcohol.
If it was sold here at 45% it would add another $20 onto a bottle and would probably not sell as much.
You deserve more freedom!
I love to make an ‘old fashioned’ with MM.
Agreed, me too
I’d rather watch this while sipping Makers mark
Did you know that in 2007 a Makers Mark bottling line was set up at the Jim Beam Distillery in Clairmont? I know, because I helped set it up!
Japanese marker mark
Four roses small batch
MM produces some tasty bourbon, that's for sure.
I went to a tasting at a hotel with one of the Samuels hosting. Man, could he put away the whisky! His cheeks got redder and redder. I assume mine did too. Fun evening.
Seems to be Seal Teams favorite Spirit
Not a favorite and not in my bar but definitely want to take the tour. Sad to hear Japan owns so many distilleries :(
Really made me upset, along with the citizens of Bardstown, when they sold out to the Japanese. Why?
5:44 Check out the Slam Dunk, guys. If ya know, ya know....
Long time Kentucky bourbon drinker here, tried it and found it OK, but a little harsh. Had a friend remark about this brand, "If you like Scotch, you'll like this." Prefer Knob Creek myself, find it gentler and more mellow.
in my short but very fond lived 15 years of experience, some spirits have standardized on 76 proof. I remember very clearly the absolut 100, bacardi 151, herradura 112, laguna seca 96. Hence some didn't involve the proof level on the name, these were the proof levels they held.
I would like and have yet not searched nor found by accident, a solid answer on why spirits now are 76 proof.
My uncles favorite bourbon.
At least they relented and didn`t water it down like Jack Daniels did.
Its not my Fave spirit, but a quality product nevertheless.
Curious, are the grains used in the bourbon grown organically at Makers mark?
The distillery says they get it from local farmers
@@evanostrowski3693 yeah, local farmers spray chemicals, too. Local is relative. Just because a farmer is close doesn't mean he is growing organic. I appreciate your reply though. Many grains are desicated with glyphosate to bring them to market quicker.
Tried for a year to like MM 46 to no avail.
I’ll take a pickle back please!
RICKHOUSE !!! (7:03)
The red wax makes the bottle jump off the shelf. It’s a marketing ploy.
I gave it up when they sold out
Used to like Makers mark until I tried other high end bourbon and rye whiskey. Makers is just too mellow for me. Good for people getting into bourbon though.
JACK DANIEL'S is still king that oak flavor and savory note of smooth but strong almost sweet wood's flavor that is unique to JACK DANIEL'S can't be beat. But mm is a good second
Jack Daniel's is not bourbon.
Bitter and harsh. I prefer single malt scotch. 👍
"Single Malt Scotch" 🤨
Love the whiskey but an overnight stay is $EIGHT HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS ? DAM !! Why ? makes me think hmmm do I STILL like the whiskey ??
What a hell of a woman 👍
i say its a sippin liquer, not something to drink daily cuz its the real stuff.
Burbon is a favor added to the alcohol.
Yes, the flavor comes from time spent in an oak barrel, as well as the grains they make the alcohol from. The Scottish flavor theirs with smoked dirt…what is your point?
It's a damn shame they sold out to a Japanese company. Have not had a sip since.
Very Good!... #125 ✝ {5-31-2022)
Are Maker's Mark and Member's Mark related?
Only popular because of the wax seal.
mashed is half correct, half the time.
I’ll drink it if someone offers it but I won’t buy it I think as bourbons go it’s too sweet for me.
Better options for sure, and cheaper. KC9 being a good alternative.
interesting video !!! would of been way better with a good narrator or narration

Maker's Mark is the oddest tasting whiskey I have ever had. The water they say they use that is rich in calcium and magnesium means LIME. Which is present in Midwest water. Not purified water. That is what I attribute to the taste.
Have you tried Woodenville? That is a stand-out from any other whiskey I've had.
@@prestonorrick3498 Can't say I've seen it on the shelf. But if I do I might just try it.
@@Waterlooplein1 It's excellent IMO.
Yeah throw down a bottle and take off into outer space 🪐
