- 5 out of 5 stars review8/23/2026This is the standard by which all other bourbons should be compared. It is perfectly balanced and smooth. The cask strength designation makes it a wonderful gift for anyone who regularly enjoys Maker’s Mark.

DarrellMOriginally posted oninfluenster.com - 5 out of 5 stars review8/8/2026My husband is a huge bourbon guy, but specifically makers mark. He loves this cask strength and it's his go to bourbon for drinking straight or using in a mixed drink.
Great bourbon
LaurenJOriginally posted oninfluenster.com - 5 out of 5 stars review7/25/2026This is my go to bourbon. It had a smooth mouthfeel and superb taste. I also appreciate the affordability of this bourbon over others of lower quality.
Love the smoothness
JessieOOriginally posted oninfluenster.com - 5 out of 5 stars review7/22/2026Tried this for my Birthday, now I’m hooked. It was smooth enough to drink straight. I can’t wait till this weekend will be taking to our family cook out.
So worth trying. Great value !!!!!!

Maker's Mark whiskey impresses with its rich, smoo
MatthewHOriginally posted oninfluenster.com - 5 out of 5 stars review7/7/2026Nothing like a home made old fashioned with Makers on the Fourth of July, sitting by the pool watching the sunset. Makers is excellent in just about any mixed drink or even over ice by itself.
So smooth
NathanCOriginally posted oninfluenster.com - 5 out of 5 stars review6/13/2026My favorite weekend drink. Love the rich oak smokiness, can have it either straight up or mixed in. No bitterness or weird aftertaste. I can take it straight up or mixed in.
The Best Weekend Drink
CourtneyMOriginally posted oninfluenster.com - 5 out of 5 stars review3/25/2026Great “anytime” bourbon! Its smooth taste and full flavor is excellent for old fashions and other bourbon based cocktails. The bottle is also very eye catching, which makes it easy to spot and request when at a bar or restaurant.
Smooth taste, full flavor.
AimeeMOriginally posted oninfluenster.com - 5 out of 5 stars review2/24/2026Marker’s mark is a smooth and flavorful bourbon with nice caramel and vanilla notes. Easy to drink and perfect neat or in cocktails. Great for quality and very easy enjoyable overall
Smooth,flavorful bourbon with caramel and vanilla
OsleyLOriginally posted oninfluenster.com - 5 out of 5 stars review2/10/2026Excellent option for the price point. It’s a light but rich bourbon. It an everyday drink that goes well neat or to be used as a base for bourbon drinks.
Good option
marita11_7080Originally posted oninfluenster.com - 5 out of 5 stars review2/19/2026It is a great staple house bourbon. Works great as a mixer for cocktails. As a woman I like the taste and often it is a go to for me. I love the vanilla undertones.
Solid house bourbon!
MeganMOriginally posted oninfluenster.com - 5 out of 5 stars review3/4/2026Top tier whiskey for a nice smooth drink in the rocks. Goes down as smoothly as it should. Leaves a perfect aftertaste leaving you wanting another sip. This drink is never a miss.
Always a winner with this one!
ErikaPOriginally posted oninfluenster.com - 5 out of 5 stars review2/20/2026This is a smooth true whiskey great for old fashions and whisky sours. The bottle and sealed wax finish is pleasing to the eye for a bar display. Won't leave you filling like you drank a sugary whiskey.
Smooth bold true whiskey taste
TaniaPOriginally posted oninfluenster.com - 4 out of 5 stars review8/17/2026Maker's Mark Bourbon Whisky is the perfect drink for a crisp Fall evening. So aromatic it warms my mouth as I savor the complexity of this delicious drink.
Fall in a glass
LinaGOriginally posted oninfluenster.com - 4 out of 5 stars review2/10/2026Maker's Mark is a premium Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey renowned for its smooth, sweet, and approachable flavor profile. Distilled in Loretto, Kentucky by Beam Suntory, this wheated bourbon is typically bottled at 45% ABV (90 proof). Unlike many other bourbons that use rye in their mash bill, Maker's Mark substitutes red winter wheat, creating a softer, sweeter taste. Its distinctive red wax seal makes it instantly recognizable on shelves, symbolizing the brand’s craftsmanship and heritage.
100 Marks for Makesr Mark
abhisheks64_885Originally posted oninfluenster.com - 4 out of 5 stars review5/31/2026Makers is our go to for a good Old Fashioned! Here is a great recipe! 2 oz makers, 2 dashes bitters, 1/2 tsp simple syrup, orange peel. Try pure maple syrup in place of simple syrup for a more homey taste!
Makes a perfect Old Fashioned!
ShawneeJOriginally posted oninfluenster.com - 4 out of 5 stars review11/28/2025Maker’s Mark has become one of my go to bourbons. The red wax on the label always makes it feel a little special, and the warm amber color looks great in the glass. It has a smooth, medium body with that easy sweetness Maker’s Mark is known for, caramel, vanilla, a little oak, nothing harsh. I like it neat or with a couple ice cubes, and it also mixes really well when I’m making simple cocktails. Overall, it’s a solid whiskey for pretty much any occasion, whether I’m just unwinding at home or having friends over.
Easy to drink, easy to love
jacquelinem369_8069Originally posted oninfluenster.com - 3 out of 5 stars review1/26/2026The first time I tried Maker’s Mark was at a new American-style bar that had just opened in my town, and it immediately stood out to me among the other whiskeys on offer. Where many bourbons can lean heavily into spice or harsh oak, Maker’s Mark feels softer and more inviting. It has a rich, buttery mouthfeel, balanced by a gentle sweetness with notes of vanilla that never overpower the palate. Compared to other whiskeys I’ve tried, it’s noticeably smoother and less aggressive, making it easy to enjoy without rushing the experience. The finish is warm and lingering rather than sharp, which gives it a sense of depth without being overwhelming. It’s the kind of whiskey that encourages you to slow down, savour each sip, and settle into the mo...

isobelb22_2521Originally posted oninfluenster.com - 3 out of 5 stars review3/15/2026Very interesting and deep bourbon whisky. It’s not my go to but I do not mind it at all if it’s what’s available. I know lots of friends who enjoy this drink on the rocks. Smells very strong and goes down decently.
Decent Bourbon
ShellyEOriginally posted oninfluenster.com - 3 out of 5 stars review3/5/2026I’m not a big whiskey fan but this is ok, it’s strong and it has a nice woody flavor pairs well with coke or Pepsi. The packaging is nice and the seal is really good you will for sure notice if it was broken off
It’s ok
