Maker's Mark Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whisky — the celebrated wheat-recipe Bourbon from Maker's Mark (founded 1958 by Bill Samuels Sr. in Loretto, Kentucky). Uses wheat instead of rye as the secondary grain — softer, sweeter Bourbon than typical rye-heavy expressions. Iconic red wax hand-dipped seal on every bottle. Notably, Maker's Mark writes "Whisky" (Scottish spelling, honouring Bill Samuels Sr.'s Scottish heritage).

Frequently asked
Why wheat instead of rye?
Bill Samuels Sr. wanted a smoother, less spicy Bourbon than rye-heavy Kentucky standard. Substituting wheat for rye as the secondary grain delivers softer, sweeter, more approachable character. Rare "wheated Bourbon" category (Maker's Mark, W.L. Weller, Pappy Van Winkle share this style).
Why the red wax seal?
Distinctive Maker's Mark visual signature designed by Bill Samuels Sr.'s wife Margie. Every bottle is hand-dipped in red wax at the distillery. Iconic craft presentation.
