Introduction:
Maker’s Mark 46 French Oaked Bourbon Whisky is a refined expression of the classic Maker’s Mark, enhanced by the influence of seared French oak staves. This finishing process adds depth, richness, and a distinctive layer of spice, creating a bourbon that’s both complex and exceptionally smooth.
