On the Eighth Day, God made many things, to each our own. Makers Mark was at the top of the list for sure.

Isn't there something about Maker's Mark watering down the liquor or something?
- scarabin0
supposedly they're not meeting global demand so they had to cut it to make enough

maker's is okay but i don't get why everyone thinks it's the best, or even high-grade stuff. probably marketing.
it's like middle of the road supermarket stuff

Damn! That seems like it would just raise the price. I don't really drink the stuff, but heard something about this.

I graduated from Makers Mark to better stuff years ago but with this move I will never buy their product again.

i guess they just pre-melted a little ice in it for you already.

just awful economics! anyone with half a brain can figure out a basic price relative to supply and demand

I usually have Maker's on hand, but if I'm going to have a glass of bourbon, then I prefer Hudson Bourbon
- If it's not from Kentucky, it ain't bourbon!!monkeyshine
- That's a common misconception.bulletfactory
- No misconception. I know Hudson is legal but doesn't mean it's true bourbon. Lime stone makes all the difference.monkeyshine

Give Breckenridge Bourbon a try. It's wonderful.
