French oaked for layers of flavor, Maker's 46® is the taste vision of Bill Samuels, Jr. Creating his signature bourbon requires first-of-its-kind finishing that begins with fully matured cask strength Maker’s Mark®. Ten seared French oak staves are fitted into the barrel before the whisky is finished to maturity under ideal conditions in our limestone cellar. The result is an easy-to-sip bourbon with notes of caramel, vanilla and baking spice that greet the palate in layers. Capturing the 46 taste vision took some doing. But all you need to figure out is your favorite way to enjoy Bill, Jr.’s recipe.

BUILDING A BETTER BARREL
Though aging in cooler temperatures is pivotal for Maker's Mark 46, developing the Maker's Mark 46 finishing process was all about finding the right wood and determining how to treat it.
WOOD WIZARDRY
Other than wood type, several factors can affect oak's impact on a bourbon, like how it's dried, cooked and even cut.
THE LUCKY NUMBER
After much experimentation, adding seared French oak (or Stave Profile No. 46) to fully matured Maker's Mark was just what Bill, Jr., was looking for.
