An Oldie but Goodie with an Innovative Story | Maker's 46 Bourbon Review

Maker's Mark is already a household name — but Maker's 46 is where innovation meets tradition. On this episode of The Liquor Connoisseur, Crystal and Roger review this iconic expression and explore the creative process behind it. Maker's 46 takes the classic Maker's Mark wheated bourbon and finishes it with seared French oak staves inserted directly into the barrel, adding layers of caramel, vanilla, and spice without over-aging. It was Maker's first new product in over 50 years — and it became an instant classic. Tune in as Crystal and Roger go behind the label, discuss the innovation story, and see where Maker's 46 falls on your connoisseur journey.
