Maker's Mark 46 Collector's Edition 70cl
Limited Edition Wooden Box! Cool as hell for those who like collecting bourbon stuff and things. We certainly do and one sits proudly on our office shelves!
With an impressive red wax seal, wax stamp and presented in a stylish wooden box, The Maker’s Mark 46 is a bourbon whisky with an ABV of 47%. This deep amber dram from The Loch Fyne distillery in Inverary, Scotland, has been barrel finished with 10 French oak staves, and promises a big and bold finish that will leave a lasting taste.
The first line extension to the Maker's Mark range since the '50s, Maker's 46 is essentially the standard expression with added spice. This bourbon was not intended to compete with the core expression, instead it's a cousin to it, something different for those that like spicy whiskey. They add this extra dimension by inserting seared French oak staves into the barrels (with the stave profile "number 46" - thus the name). It's utterly stunning.
Tasting Notes
Nose Toffee sweetness and the saw dust from freshly cut wood. Has a very toasty aroma, with sweet spices and deep, thick caramel.
Palate Creamy and very soft. Then it opens up, in fact it explodes with spiciness which concentrates on the tip of the tongue. It’s on nutmeg, mulled wine spices, allspice, cinnamon. Also a hint of hot apple juice.
Finish A natural progression of the palate with the sweet spices and it concentrates on the tongue – this may be one of the few times you’ll notice a concentration of sweetness like this from a bourbon. It also becomes grassy after a minute or so.
