Maker's Mark 46
The first bourbon in our wood-finishing series, Maker's Mark 46 was created by Bill Samuels, Jr., to amplify the flavors he loves in Maker's Mark. The innovative wood-stave-finishing process starts with fully matured Maker's Mark at cask strength. We then insert 10 seared virgin French oak staves into the barrel and finish it for nine weeks in our limestone cellar. The result is Maker's Mark 46: bolder and more complex, but without the bitterness typical of longer-aged whiskies. Want the full Maker's Mark 46 story?

Knob Creek Smoked Maple
Knob Creek Smoked Maple is a flavored bourbon that blends Knob Creek's original Kentucky Straight Bourbon with natural maple flavors, resulting in a unique, smoky sweetness. It has a full-bodied taste with inviting maple notes that are lifted by smoke and complemented by rich vanilla and caramel. The aroma features smoked hickory and maple wood, with hints of earthy grains. It's known for its smooth, slightly sweet finish, and while it's high-proof (90 proof), it's sweeter than some might expect, making it a good choice for those new to bourbon or who enjoy sweeter spirits, especially in cocktails.
