When Bill Samuels, Sr. bought the 200-acre site in 1953, it was the Burks Spring Distillery that had begun operation in 1805. In 1980, the entire distillery was recognized by then-U.S. Secretary of the Interior Cecil Andress. He designated Maker's Mark Distillery a National Historic Landmark. Today we are the smallest and oldest currently operating distillery in the nation.

"Makers Mark NFL BLACK TOP Bourbon: The rich, buttery nose has strong hints of raisins and honey. The big, soft body presents a complex, yet very easy palate with a veil of flavors that includes vanilla, honey, oranges, sweet butter and a well-balanced backdrop of old leather and just a hint of spice. The finish is long, warm and very smooth." 92 Points - Wine Enthusiast, September '99

"Makers Mark Bourbon: Nose - Aroma with delightful strands of exotic fruit and honey. Fruit cake. Oak adds to feeling of class. Palate - Lush, pleasingly deep and malty. A firm nuttiness adds extra oily, chewability to the toffee. Finish - Drier than of old. Caramel toffee with the oak guarantees a bittersweet edge. Comments - An old faithful of a bourbon. Never lets you down and being from the wheaty school always shows good oak balance. Nose is to die for." - Jim Murray.
