Another year, another Cellar Aged Bourbon release from the fine folks at Maker’s Mark. Since 2024 ended not so long ago, that’s what we’ll be discussing in today’s video, i.e. the 2024 edition of this Maker’s Mark series. Here are a few words about the 2024 Cellar Aged […]
We love it when an established brand stretches its wings and tries something different. For decades, there was only one Maker’s Mark expression, then came the Maker’s 46 (which we love!), then the Cask Strength, and so on and so on… Their latest release is called Maker’s Mark […]

In recognition of our duties as Maker’s Mark Ambassadors, the Booze Dancers received their annual Christmas presents from Maker’s Mark earlier this week. This year’s present was a bottle sweater.
