Two traditions, one uncompromising pour. And a Manhattan recipe like you’ve never tasted before.

We’ve always believed better is worth the extra effort. Maker’s Mark 46 was our way of proving it—taking a bourbon we were already proud of and finishing it with seared French oak staves to bring out deeper notes of caramel, spice, and vanilla. You’ll know it when you try it.

Luxardo feels the same about their cherries. Family-owned, detail-driven, and uncompromising in taste, they’ve spent generations perfecting what most would consider a small detail. Together, it’s not just a Manhattan—it’s what happens when nothing is left to chance.

New York Sour

Don’t let the name fool you! The New York Sour may sound like an East Coast classic, but its roots likely trace back to Chicago. Over time, it’s picked up more than a few nicknames — Continental Sour, Claret Snap, even Southern Whisky Sour — all hinting at its ability to charm just about anyone, anywhere. With a bold bourbon base and a dramatic float of red wine, the New York Sour is as eye-catching as it is delicious, and it’s easier to make than it looks.

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.
