General description

Cherry and chocolate on the nose. Marshmallow and orange zest. Creamy.

Syrupy mouthfeel with a little spice on the tip of the tongue that lingers. I enjoy this in an old fashioned.

Doce, baunilha, madeira, spice. Ótimo para drinks

General description

wheated. not very complex. friendly

Nose

chocolate, caramel

Palate

cherries, vanilla

Finish

super round, sweet

General description

Very Cherry and sweet and smooth. Hints of vanilla

General description

es denso y dulzón. Rico para una medida

General description

キャラメル？なのか甘さが特徴のストレートバーボン。ストレートはキツい甘さも、まろやかさはあるので、ハイボールだと美味しく飲める。上手く香り開くとバニラ感が楽しめる。45度ありコスパ良しか。

General description

sweet and smooth.

General description

This golden amber drop is something special and all the way from Kentucky USA! It is a mist for all bourbon lovers!

Nose

On the nose you will find a subtle vanilla tone with notes of roses, line and cocoa.

Palate

It is complimented by fresh fruit on the palate.

Finish

The finish is spicy and oaky making this is well balanced bourbon!

General description

sweet and smooth

General description

brown sugar, buttered popcorn and a bit of spice. sweet taste with a oakiness. always solid

General description

Relatively smooth. Cherry and some vanilla on the nose. Oak and wood on the palate with some tannins. Brown sugar and some spice to go with.

General description

Very strong on the taste, a bit overpowering, nice in the nose with different flavours coming through

General description

Well rounded one, vanilla and caramel note at smell and slightly ashe after taste

General description

What makes this one standout is that it's floral and softer (due to the wheat). It's a decent value.

General description

I like it. However its been my first Whisky since a while now. I am starting a new journey of Whisky Tasting now. Can't recall the taste of my previous Whisky's so I stick with rhe average review here.

General description

Yeah… nice. Great for those summer days and on some ice. Still prefer the Buffalo Trace which is also cheaper so I doubt I will ever buy this one, maybe the 46 out of interest.

Pleasant. Easy drinking. Not boring. Well done Makers Mark

General description

I'm not a fan of Bourbon but this one is quite tasty. Not as spicy as advertised but there are some new and interesting flavors in there for sure. You can taste alcohol easily but that's nothing that some ice wouldn't handle.

General description

A Much better budget bourbon then Wild Turkey or Jim Beam

Nose

Standard bourbon notes, Vanilla, caramel, candied cherries, charcoal. all around very sweet. some caramel

Palate

Vanilla, scotch finger biscuits and charcoal, then candied cherries and caramel. Some apple.

Finish

A lingering cherry and vanilla. A nice oak and a little salt

General description

Отличный кентукийский бурбон!
Многие говорят, что он простенький... но при этом большинство сравнивают бурбоны именно с Maker' Mark. Я бы его назвал эталоном бурбона, ибо он действительно настолько, на мой взгляд, классический и правильный, что по праву многими считается королем бурбонов.
Аромат изящный, много кукурузной сладости и ванильной выпечки. Явственно проступает дуб, а потом немного цветочной сладости, переходящей в пряности.
Вкус... вкус, для меня, безупречно правильный, может быть без сюрпризов, но явный, ожидаемый сильный. Явственно чувствуется кукуруза и дуб, ваниль, сладкая выпечка, мёд. Несмотря на 45% не спиртуозный.
Послевкусие долгое, с медовыми и ванильными нотками, переходящими к терпким пряностям.
Великолепный продукт, ни разу не пожалел, что покупаю его. Часто, выбирая бурбон в баре, беру именно его, т.к. знаю, что получу от этого напитка.

General description

Nice Bourbon,good kick at 45%

General description

for the price, really nothing to complain about. a fairly balanced, spicy bourbon with secondary vanilla sweetness. would be a great mixer if you're looking for a spicy bourbon in your cocktails. rivals a buffalo trace, far better than a jack daniels or Jim beam

Nose

fairly subtle oak and vanilla. light alcohol, hint of orange.

Palate

dominant flavor is oak spice. secondary vanilla sweetness.

Finish

quick light finish, with slight oilliness on the end.

Bardzo dobry burbon. Łagodny dzięki zawartości pszenicy w składzie. Wchodzi i na czysto i z colą.

General description

Süßer Duft, leichter Hauch von Karamell, natürlich Vanille und Honig. Allerdings dann am Gaumen doch recht trocken. Nicht zu stark und durchaus ein gut zu genießender Bourbon.

Nose

Karamell, Honig, Vanille

Palate

Honig, Eiche

General description

Like you expect from a bourbon, lots of sweet vanilla. Behind that some cherry notes as well. Have to dive deeper into it to discover more.

General description

vanilla and caramel, what else dud you expect? Have to admit, I had to find my way after the first few drams. Was worth the try.

General description

Аромат дуба с оттенками шоколада, довольно мягкая середина, вкус бочки, послевкусие короткое, финиш яркий, но не спиртуозный

General description

one of my favorites

General description

Sweet. Delicate. Light biurbon. On the nose honey. Lovely. Floral maybe yet. On the tounge more rye, sweetness at abot 20%. Little peppery. Better on the nose. Too bad. If MM would taste as it smells I would love it. Generally it's a good bourbon :-D

Finish

Kurzer Abgang mit dominanter Süsse, ausgekohltes Fass und Zuckermais-Noten

Nice Bourbon, different taste than a Single Malt. Little sweet, not too much, could get used to it.

General description

Rich, thick, chewy. Earthen palate with mild vanilla.

General description

Warming nose, smooth caramel on the tongue, then cherry bomb!! Black cherry notes as the finish fades. Not terribly complex, but good for the price!

General description

slightly above average bourbon, drinkable

General description

good entry

General description

Typical bourbon nose, like eagle rare. Similar taste as well, just a bit flatter, slightly sweeter perhaps, but still with spice.

General description

Sweet and smooth. Reminds me of candy lollpops and brown sugars. Just a nice classic Bourbon.

Sind wir doch mal ehrlich. Gemischt mit Kola od. als Grog, für mehr reicht es nicht. Pur ist es das reinste Klebstoff geschnüffel. Eine tolle Idee ist natürlich das Design der Flasche mit den Wachsverlauf am Verschluß.

General description

Sweet, smooth.

Nose

Honey. Butterscotch. Burnt sugar

sharp alcohol after taste but not a burn.

General description

Not much complexity here. Van on the nose and some on the tongue. hits of Carmel. not much spice and low burn. good for the price though.

General description

Not my favorite of the mid-price whiskies. Bottle is the most exciting part of the package

General description

vanilla caramel and apple on the nose and taste. very drinkable

General description

Nice small batch bourbon. Would buy again.

General description

Smell of modelling glue on the nose, with a hint of bright apple lurking beneath. Vanilla emerges after a bit of sniffing. Creamy mouthfeel on sipping, with same vanilla first arising before a note of leather and cinnamon creeps in. The taste sensation fades away to leave a persistentdrying, fizzing sensation in the mouth.

General description

Quite good bourbon with strong flavor

General description

classic burbon, lots of corn and sweetness on the nose. mouth somewhat earthy in a forest way. lots of corn, typical of a burbon. somewhat moldy feel, on the late taste, relating to that forest earth.

Nose

Vanilla and oak.

Palate

creamy yet sharp.

General description

nothin to get excited about here. won't sip on it, but too expensive to mix.... and I don't mix

General description

Classic grain bourbon. Rich vanilla aroma and sweet taste. Burnt oak caramel hints.

General description

got my attention at the first sip, somehow it's special, different, but not different at all at the same time, does exactly what you would think a good bourbon does

Nose

sugar, vanilla, orange peel,

Palate

beachy, coconut, sugar cane, faint vegetal hint

General description

Nice and smooth but also very simple

General description

Promises what it can never deliver. Better alternative to Jack Daniel's and probably better used in mixed drinks. A bit of water brought out some nuance of flavor, but only slightly.

General description

solid bourbon and nice to enjoy on the rocks

General description

It's a bar staple, but nothing special.

General description

Good stable drink. A solid go-to.

General description

Tasting @ L&B whiskybar Amsterdam. Round 4.

A sidestep to Kentucky for this round. We got the 45% uncoloured and chill filtered golden Maker's Mark.

At first nosing a bit alcoholic but the sweet stuff leads. A subtle vanilla is accompanied by caramel, toffee and honey. Besides the sweetness, this one is very wheaty and therefore very smooth. When you get past the sweetness, some fresh wood is detectable.

The sweet and spicy palate adds a few new elements. Hazelnut, sweet popcorn and white bread are amongst them.
It's a corn whisky so the caramel/honey sweetness here is obvious. The spice comes from the spicy young American oak I guess.

The smooth long finish offers some white bread and dry fruits besides the lingering honey sweetness.
The 2nd zip surprisingly had more power than the first.

A nicely balanced and sweet dram, but when I compare this one to the only other Kentucky bourbon I had, this one lost it in comparison to the magnificent Blanton's single barrel.

76 points.

General description

Nothing to special.

General description

Good for price

General description

A good benchmark to compare other burbons, Maker's Mark has a syrupy smoothness that makes it palatable to all who taste it.

Nose

Distinctly mellow caramel and vanilla scent. One must sniff deeply to get any hint that this is an alcohol.

Palate

Thick sweet caramel coats the tongue giving way to a smooth toffee and vanilla finish.

Finish

surprisingly fleeting for as syrupy as this burbon is. But overall it is pleasing. Aftertaste is of light oak and spice.

General description

Easily accessible

Nose

Indistinct

Palate

Sweet and vanilla

Finish

Mold burn

General description

Good for the price and can find it everywhere. Always have it at the airports before every flight.

General description

An okay bourbon. No strong distinctive flavors.

General description

Fruity and sweet, very nice for its price. Best to sip and a good alternative to Jack Daniel's Single Barrel.

Palate

Fruity

General description

Tastes nice for the price in comparison to others

General description

The old standby.

General description

Rich, smoky and goes great with peanut M&Ms.

General description

a little char, toffee, and residual sweetness

General description

Being a card carrying Maker's ambassador I have nothing but love for this bourbon. Yes it is light, sweet and uncomplicated but value it for what it is, an affordable mixer that is great with ginger ale.

General description

Preis/Leistung toll. Viel Vanille!

General description

Sweet but not complex.

General description

Sweet and bold. I'm a fan

General description

great sweet smooth bourbon. nice for high volume product

General description

Quite strong and sharp start, followed by a kind of sweet and rather 'flat' taste and finish

General description

great one. good taste, full body, not spirty

General description

A really nice bourbon, available everywhere in the UK.

General description

Great stuff for the price. Good standby. Sweet

General description

Very smooth, very sweet bourbon. One of my favorites and always on my shelf

General description

don't care for it. rather spend the price on something else

General description

one of my favorites!

General description

Good stuff for the price.

General description

Mild and sweet like honey. A great standby for the price

General description

Great mixer!

General description

My first buy love this one straight with food and mixer!

General description

Maker's first opened my eyes to bourbon, and will always have a place in my heart. Not real complex, not real bold, but always a consistant sip.

Nose

Light, hints of vanilla, and carmel.

Palate

Sweet simple syrup.

General description

General description

Reliable, smooth taste. Definitely a staple to keep in my cabinet.

General description

Bourbon die niet met rogge gemaakt is. Zachte smaak. combineert goed met chocolade pinda"s nougat en carramel

General description

too strong but goes great with chocolate

General description

Strong stuff. Something I usually go to when I've had a longer day than usual. Pretty good for something on the lower end of the price spectrum.

General description

a promising nose of syrup, dried red fruit and vanilla oil that really doesn't deliver afterwards. the arrival is harsh, followed by sweetness (bubblegum),m i 're vanilla and burnt sugar. in the finish there's a metallic mineral note, along with creme brulee and sweet spice. all in all a bit too rough and unbalanced with a tin development to become a favorite. nice but no more than that...

General description

Like others wrote it is much better with ice. Overall not bad, but not worth the price.

General description

too light. it feels watered down.

General description

My go to bourbon for years. Love it with ginger ale and a Luxarddo cherry. Great price.

Nose

very aromatic caramel vanilla smell

Palate

the wheat makes it rest easy on the palate

Finish

slightly sweet finish and slight oak taste

General description

Light, a little fruity. Not bad, but nothing to write home about.

General description

A fine example of tweaking the mash to offer a slight sweetness that other bourbons dont have.

General description

I think this is one of the few that's better with ice.

General description

staple. awesome.

General description

Solid whisky. I love to mix with coke at a wedding. Only do this when it is free.

General description

not one of my favorites. It is just ok for me. I know a lot of people enjoy this, but there are just so many better bourbons out there for the same price.

General description

This one reminds me of helping someone overcome an big obstacle. It taste just like that

General description

Bourbon isn't my preferred liquor, but when I'm in the mood for Kentucky's finest, Maker's is what I reach for.

General description

cabinet favorite. always savored. full-bodied and smooth.

General description

One of my fsvourites...

General description

Un bonne odeur de bois brûlé. un bourbon classic

General description

ok for mixing. standard best

General description

Great Bourbon one of the best!

General description

very decent. use this for some of my mixed drinks and for cooking

General description

very Sweet taste with a bite. oily mouthfeel and not to complex. tastes different because of the weat added to the bourbon. you deffinitly need to buy this whiskey as an introduction to weated bourbons, but if you don't like it then try another one!

General description

Sweet light vanilla bourbon, hints of (pop)corn. Aftertaste of caramel and some oak. Quite a stinger sometimes!

Nose

Vanilla and caramel

Palate

Caramel, (pop)corn and hint of oak

Finish

Light caramel and some oak

General description

Good. First bourbon

General description

very smooth, nice oak and nut aroma.

General description

Good vanilla and oak flavor, but watery and a biting finish.
