When Bill Samuels, Jr., decided to create a new bourbon, he was looking for a companion to his father's signature Maker's Mark that would help leave his own mark on the family legacy. He made it a personal challenge to give bourbon lovers a bourbon that could be held on the tongue and featured much more of the natural vanilla and caramel notes he admired in the original. He and his team began working with the Independent Stave Company, experimenting with special barrels, different wood varieties and varying levels of char. After many tries, Bill found the answer in placing 10 seasoned, seared virgin French oak staves into a barrel of fully matured Maker’s Mark. These special staves were on file with the Independent Stave Company as “profile 46,” and so Maker’s Mark 46 was born, leaving its own mark as a first-of-its-kind bourbon.

Drawing from a rich history dating back to 1812, the distillery’s legacy is rooted in pioneering bourbon production techniques, with the distillery itself now a National Historic Landmark. The whiskey is made by the dynamic duo, Chris Morris and Elizabeth McCall, whose shared passion for the art of whiskey-making shines through in every bottle. With a focus on craftsmanship, innovation, and quality, each sip of Woodford Reserve is a testament to their dedication and expertise. Woodford Reserve is a blend of time-honoured tradition and cutting-edge innovation, producing world-class bourbon that continues to push the boundaries of flavour. Philosophy: At Woodford Reserve, the belief is simple: great bourbon is a fusion of science, time, patience, and artistry. The distillery’s masterful approach begins with their exceptional grain recipe of 72% corn, 18% rye, and 10% malted barley, which balances the sweetness of corn with the spice of rye and the nuttiness of malt. With naturally filtered, mineral-rich water sourced directly from the distillery grounds and a careful fermentation and distillation process, each batch of Woodford Reserve embodies the perfect combination of flavour and finesse. The barrels, crafted at their very own cooperage, undergo a unique maturation process in new, charred white oak barrels, lending complexity, richness, and balance to the spirit. It’s not just about making whiskey—it’s about making history.

"...you can buy me a dozen of these roses any day of the week." - breakingbourbon.com Produced from a mashbill of 60% corn, 35% rye, and 5% malted barley, the strain of yeast used for the Single Barrel bottlings is Four Roses' version “V” which is described as being "delicately fruity, spicy, and creamy." (The distillery is unique in that it uses five different strains to create ten different whiskies). Ages will vary in this series, (a seven year minimum is cited by one source). Regardless, the aim is to bottle when the whiskeys are deemed to have reached their peak, with each barrel yielding approximately 180 bottles. Each release is individually marked with a warehouse and barrel number which is not predictable and subject to change without notice. It's also part of the fun: No two barrels create identical tasting Bourbons, thus the single barrel concept provides the opportunity to appreciate and compare whiskies from different barrels and aging locations.
