Created by Bill Samuels, Jr., to amplify the flavors he loves in Maker's Mark. The innovative wood-stave-finishing process starts with fully matured Maker's Mark at cask strength. Then they insert 10 seared virgin French oak staves into the barrel and finish it for nine weeks in a limestone cellar. The result is Maker's Mark 46: bolder and more complex, but without the bitterness typical of longer-aged whiskies. Out of all the staves tested, the stave used in this process was number 46.
