Makers Mark uses soft red winter wheat to create a bourbon with a flavour that finished on the front of the tongue. The barrels are made exclusively from 100% new American Oak but before they pour the bourbon into the barrels, they require that the wood be seasoned outdoors for a minimum of nine months - which must include one full summer. This process removes the bitter tannins from the wood and enhances the vanilla flavour of Makers Mark.
Elegant. Smooth. Refined. That's what 4 years of aging in new charred oak barrels does to our bourbon. Every drop is worth the effort and we love the idea of sticking to our great-great-grandfather's recipe. 200 Years of family heritage and over 7 generations of Beam family perfecting the craft of bourbon is what makes us the world's number one selling bourbon
It's been said that the three topics most couples argue over are their romantic lives, money and children. What the experts fail to note is that another cause for quarrel is, of course, décor! (Yes, inadvertently that could fall under money, but bear with us!)
Some want antique furniture in the living room, while others want psychedelic wallpaper that looks as if a bunch of toddlers with luminescent paint had a field day on canvas. Decisions, decisions!
One thing that pretty much everyone can agree on, as far as decor is concerned, is a lekker rug. Preferably one that looks as good inside as it does on the verandah. Our main deal is just the thing, then! We're talking recycled material even! We're talking Stefano & Co.
