We're still doing things just like we did in 1953. From the old letterpress to the way we hand-rotate every barrel and hand-dip every bottle. And yet it seems there's always something new and exciting going on at our little distillery here in Loretto. We'd love to have you sometime.
Whether you're after a smooth, full-flavored bourbon to sip neat or something to use in your favorite cocktail, any of these Maker's Mark® expressions are a great place to start. Click the bottles to learn more about each bourbon.
Learn all about the history and cast of characters behind Maker's Mark Bourbon and the time-honored process required to make it, from a breakthrough bread-baking experiment to the maverick marketing that helped elevate an upstart bourbon brand.
The Maker's Mark you know today is made just as it was when we filled our first bottle. This can feel like an old-fashioned, inefficient process at times, but we wouldn't have it any other way. See how it's done and what goes into making our newer expressions of Maker's® below.
