Taylor William "Bill" Samuels Snr started out in the whiskey industry at his family's T.W. Samuels distillery in the 1930s. When his father, Lesley Samuels, died in 1936, Bill inherited the running of the place, which he did so until 1942 when he sold it and its brands to Country Distillers Products. Bill has initially intended to retire to his farm, but the allure of creating a new bourbon proved too much, and he set about canvassing help in producing the recipe for the smoothers tasting whiskey that he has campaigned for and failed to get the family to distil over a decade prior. Among those who he reached out to were Hap Motlow of Jack Daniel's, Ed Shapira of Heaven Hill, and the legendary Julian 'Pappy' Van Winkle I. Pappy's wheated Old Weller and Old Fitzgerald bourbon were exactly the profile that Samuels was after, and with Van Winkle's help, he debuted finessed his own wheat mashbill, and bought land in Loretto, Kentucky in 1953. He filled his first barrels the following year, and in the years that preceded his first bottlings, Bill's wife Margie created the Maker's Mark brand based on her collections of fine English pewter stamps. The first bottle of Maker's Mark was bottled on 8th May 1958, and was hand-dipped with red wax, as all bottles still are to this day. 

A popular small batch bourbon, produced at the Maker's Mark distillery in Loretto, Kentucky. Maker's Mark is a wheated bourbon, first introduced in 1953 by "Bill" Samuels Snr, produced with the assistance on none other than a certain Julian 'Pappy' Van Winkle.

This specially labelled limited edition set was bottled to support the LexArts organisation in central Kentucky.

Brand History
2023 Maker's Mark Keeneland LexArts Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey 1lt Bundle 3-Pack
Maker's Mark is an iconic brand renowned for its premium bourbon whiskey, celebrated for its distinctive taste and trademark red wax seal. The story of Maker's Mark traces back to the year 1953 when Bill Samuels Sr., inspired by his family's long-standing tradition in whiskey making, embarked on a quest to create a bourbon unlike any other. Dissatisfied with the harshness and bitterness commonly associated with many bourbons of the time, Samuels set out to craft a smoother, more palatable spirit.

After experimenting with various mash bills and aging techniques, Samuels settled on a unique recipe featuring red winter wheat as a flavoring grain alongside corn and malted barley. This departure from the traditional rye-based recipe proved to be a stroke of genius, resulting in a bourbon with a remarkably smooth and mellow character.

In 1958, after years of meticulous refinement, Maker's Mark was officially introduced to the world. Its distinctive bottle, adorned with the iconic hand-dipped red wax seal, quickly became a symbol of craftsmanship and quality. The name "Maker's Mark" was chosen to reflect the handcrafted nature of the whiskey, with each bottle proudly bearing the signature of the maker, reminiscent of the maker's mark found on fine silverware and pottery.

Over the decades, Maker's Mark has remained true to its original recipe and production methods, steadfastly resisting the temptation to compromise on quality in the pursuit of mass production. This commitment to craftsmanship has earned Maker's Mark a devoted following of whiskey enthusiasts around the globe.

Today, Maker's Mark continues to uphold its legacy as a pioneer in the world of bourbon, staying true to its roots while embracing innovation to meet the evolving tastes of consumers. With each sip, drinkers are transported back to a time when whiskey was more than just a spirit—it was a labor of love, meticulously crafted by hand to perfection.
