Give Maker’s Mark® a stir
- Light & Bright
Maker’s Sour
The Maker’s Sour is a refined and refreshing blend of sour and sweet. Our Maker’s Sour is inspired by the Whisky Sour, a refreshingly citrus-forward cocktail; 1862’s "The Bartender's Guide" by Jerry Thomas is recognized as one of the first mentions of this classic. This cocktail has had enduring appeal and reaches a new level of refreshing when the sour notes are mixed with Maker’s® sweetness.

The best bourbon gift for cocktail lovers
Maker’s Mark 46® builds on the classic by finishing the bourbon with seared French oak staves, creating bolder layers of flavor. Expect notes of baking spice, caramel and vanilla that shine beautifully in spirit-forward cocktails.
PERFECT FOR: The bold drinker who loves their Manhattans a little richer or their Old Fashioneds a little spicier. This is a gift for the confident cocktail lover who appreciates depth and complexity in every sip.
The Best Bourbon Gift for Seasoned Sippers
With a higher proof, Maker’s Mark 101® offers an amplified version of the signature Maker’s® taste. Richer, warmer and more intense, it’s still remarkably smooth and approachable.
PERFECT FOR: The seasoned bourbon fan who likes a little more kick. Think of the friend who seeks out limited releases, loves to share pours with fellow enthusiasts or simply appreciates a bourbon that stands tall in any setting. Maker’s Mark 101® is both a conversation starter and a collector’s delight.
