Maker's Mark Wood Finishing Series 2019 RC6

Freshly cracked bottle enjoying a glass neat Nose - smells like makers 46 to me with more ethanol burn. Loads of vanilla and baking spices plus cinnamon and a nice light ethanol burn. Taste - classic vanilla like most makers have up front along with some heavy oak and caramel. The middle and end quickly turns into a load of baking spices and hot cinnamon probably attributed to the higher proof. Nice leather and pepper finish that is short. Overall - another classic makers and without too hefty of a price tag. This one to me is like makers 46 on steroids and really dig it but not in love with it

I’m not sure I’m a fan of this get some bitter oak and the pepper is pretty heavy still hope it will open up

Smooth and an incredible finish. Really enjoyed it.

Heavy nutmeg, cherry, vanilla, holiday spice

This has a nice light fruity nose. Think peach and apple. The palate has those nice fruit flavors. It’s got a nice caramel sweetness with a moderate long finish. This is the best Makers I have had.
