As unique as its taste is its bottle and name, both conceived by Margie Samuels, wife of founder Bill Samuels, Sr. Inspired by her collection of cognac bottles, Margie designed the square-shaped container and hand-dipped the first bottles in red wax using her home fryer. This iconic process, along with the distinctive "Maker’s Mark" branding, has made the bourbon bottles a symbol of craftsmanship and quality.
For whiskey enthusiasts and collectors alike, Maker’s Mark makes an exceptional choice for bourbon gifts, offering not only outstanding flavor but also a rich history and tradition that embodies the spirit of American handmade bourbon.
