“Bill Samuels, Sr., simply wanted a whisky he would enjoy drinking. That’s why Maker’s Mark is made with soft red winter wheat, instead of the usual rye, for a full-flavored bourbon that’s never bitter or hot. To ensure consistency, we rotate every barrel by hand and age our bourbon to taste, not time. Each and every bottle of Maker’s is still hand-dipped in signature red wax at our distillery in Loretto, Ky., just like bill would have wanted.”Maker's Mark overview

I have far too much fun writing about whiskey and singlehandedly running The Whiskey Shelf to bring you independent, honest, and useful reviews, comparisons, and more. I’m proudly Asian American and can speak Cantonese, Mandarin, and some Japanese.
There are no sponsors, no media companies, and no nonsense. Support The Whiskey Shelf by Buying Me A Shot.Shattered glass really sucks, so if you’re on the move, this Glencairn-like stainless steel snifter glass should survive your travels. Full transparency, this is an Amazon affiliate link, so I may earn a commission if you buy this or something else from Amazon.

Hi tһere would you mind stɑting wһich blog platform you’re working wіth?
I’m planning to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having
a hard time deciding between BlogEngine/Worԁpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I aѕk is becɑuse your design and style seems different then most
blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.
P.S Ѕorry for getting off-topic but I had to ask!
Hi there. I use WordPress and Pagebuilder Framework as my theme.
