Maker’s Mark Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey 1.75L
Maker’s Mark Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey – The Original Wheated Legacy
Maker’s Mark Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey redefined modern bourbon by rewriting its foundation. Created by Bill Samuels, Sr., it was born from a vision of smoothness rather than spice, crafted not to follow tradition, but to perfect a new one. By replacing rye with soft red winter wheat in the mash bill, Maker’s Mark introduced a gentler, sweeter profile that remains iconic today.

Best Enjoyed
Ideal served neat or on a single large cube, Maker’s Mark is also versatile in classic bourbon cocktails. Its smoothness and soft finish make it approachable for new bourbon drinkers, yet complex enough for seasoned palates.
A true wheated original that shaped bourbon history and still sets the standard for smooth, flavorful sipping, now available on Royal Batch.
