  • Summary

  • In this review of Maker’s Mark, Brian Bailie emphasizes its sweet, approachable nature as a weeded bourbon, making it a great entry-level whiskey. The dark copper color and thin, fast-moving legs hint at its age, around six years, and its 90 proof. On the nose, it offers honey-like sweetness, vanilla, and a touch of oak, with more baking sweetness than the burnt notes typical of traditional bourbons. The taste mirrors the nose, with smooth layers of sweetness and a subtle oak presence. The finish is medium, lingering with an oily texture. Overall, Brian gives Maker’s Mark a score of 3 out of 5 for its nose, taste, and finish, calling it a solid, well-rounded American wheated bourbon at an affordable price of around $30.
