With seven generations of bourbon-making history in his blood, you'd think the top dog at Maker's Mark would have had his sights set on taking over the family business from a very young age. But that wasn't the case with Bill. He wanted to be a basketball player, a rocket scientist and a lawyer. He inevitably became all three, playing basketball in high school, studying rocket science at Case Western Reserve University and earning a law degree from Vanderbilt University. After coming home to take a temporary job at the distillery, his true calling found him. He took the reins in 1980 and oversaw Maker's Mark's ascent from a struggling family distillery to a brand recognized worldwide for its unique flavor and premium appeal — all while maintaining the family tradition of making every drop of Maker's by hand. Not too bad for a "temporary" job.
Full-flavored, yet remarkably easy to drink, Maker’s Mark has a taste that took years to perfect. The unique bourbon taste of Maker’s Mark can actually be attributed to pure, iron-free limestone spring water. It comes from our one-and-only source of water – the beautiful 10-acre limestone spring-fed lake at the Maker’s Mark Distillery. With a foundation of red winter wheat rather than traditional rye, we ensure that Maker’s Mark will be full on the palate, yet lack the hot coarseness of rye-based whiskies. This, along with naturally malted barley, and yellow corn, results in a distinctively full, yet mellow taste that hasn’t changed in over half a century.
