The first line extension to the Maker's Mark range since the '50s, Maker's 46 is essentially the standard wheated expression with added spice. This bourbon wasn't intended to compete with the core expression, instead it's a cousin to it, something different for those that enjoy the extra dimension provided by inserting seared French oak staves into the barrels (with the stave profile "number 46" - thus the name). It's utterly stunning.
Toffee sweetness and the saw dust from freshly cut wood. Has a very toasty aroma, with sweet spices and deep, thick caramel.
Creamy and very soft. Then it opens up, in fact it explodes with spiciness which concentrates on the tip of the tongue. It’s on nutmeg, mulled wine spices, allspice, cinnamon. Also a hint of hot apple juice.
A natural progression of the palate with the sweet spices and it concentrates on the tongue – this may be one of the few times you’ll notice a concentration of sweetness like this from a bourbon. It also becomes grassy after a minute or so.
£4.20 - £28.50
My usual dram is a good Scottish malt but now and again I venture into the world of American whiskey - just for a change. In the past I've enjoyed Wild turkey 101, Woodford Reserve, Rittenhouse and Makers Mark to name a few. I saw this MM46 and was tempted to give it a try and I am glad I did. It's a BIG whiskey, full of vanilla, caramel and spices and smooth enough to drink straight, even at 47%. As the summary says: very pleasant for change. Very pleasant indeed.
nice on its own or with a chunk of ice, very moreish and definitely get another bottle, reminded me a bit of Gentlemen Jack.,
My favorite under $50 whisky. Absolutely delicious. Toffee, vanilla, carmel, & cola. The red winter wheat creates a unique full bodied flavor profile that is very drinkable when relaxing by the fire. No burning from this dram, instead there is a nice warmth when it hits the stomach that's coupled with a smooth finish that leaves plenty to reflect on. A step up from plain old Makers, delicious in it's own right, but the 46 takes it a few steps further. I've sampled many whiskys under $50 and this is my favorite. Makers 46 will always have a special place in my cabinet.
It's...OK. Perfectly drinkable, but really nothing special. It's almost as though some spicy smoke has been crudely bolted onto the flavour of regular Maker's. It's fine. I'll drink all of it. But I was looking forward to something special from this. However, if you told me it was a standard bottling to go alongside Beam white, Heaven Hill Old Old Style, Old Forester, etc, then I'd believe you.
Nice sipping bourbon, all you need is a big rock!
