Maker's Mark

Kentucky Bourbon

About Me


I am a fine Kentucky Bourbon Whisky made from red winter wheat and yellow corn (you call it maize). Made with natural pre-Prohibition yeast, fermented in cypress tanks, double distilled in copper stills, and aged in charred white oak barrels to perfection, I am the ultimate sippin' whisky for the discerning drunkard.

My Interests

Being consumed.

I'd like to meet:

Ice, glasses, and most especially . . . YOU!!!

Music:

Johnny Cash

Movies:

Deliverance

Television:

The Beverly Hillbillies

Heroes:

My ancestors in Scotland and Ireland, my uncle Jim Beam . . . and of course my Tennessee sour-mash cousin Jack Daniels.
