FAQs

What makes Maker's Mark different from other bourbons?
Maker's Mark uses soft red winter wheat instead of rye as the secondary grain — producing a distinctively smooth, approachable wheated bourbon that is less spicy and more approachable than traditional rye-forward bourbons.

What is the 250th Anniversary significance?
2026 marks 250 years of American independence — this limited edition release commemorates the milestone with Maker's Mark's signature handcrafted quality and iconic red wax seal, making it a meaningful collector's bottle for the occasion.

Is the red wax seal still hand-dipped?
Yes — every bottle of Maker's Mark is still hand-dipped in red wax at the distillery in Loretto, Kentucky, making each bottle unique and maintaining the handcrafted tradition that has defined the brand for over 65 years.
