Whiskey Review/Tasting: Maker's Mark Red Seal 

I don't think this man was ever a boy.

One of my favorite "burbmms".

It’s so smooth and friendly

I've always wanted to try this but I've held off because it is a little expensive. By the way, I really love your accent. I've been studying German in college and hope to go to Germany some day.

@sleepnow

I want this guy to read me a bed time story while I drink my whiskey before falling asleep

This guy makes me want to become an alcoholic the way he reviews the Makers Mark.

I'm going to be honest this man's voice is amazing makes me want a nice glass of whisky my self

this guy should be narrating national geographic

Just bought a bottle of this. Gotta work first and then in about 8 hours... it's on.

I watch this again every time I get a new bottle of Maker's Mark. I love the whiskey and the way this guy talks about it, makes it seem even better.

His accent and his voice coalesce to bring an altogether relaxing audio. I rather enjoy unintentional ASMR. My first time on his channel. Ready for some more.

"Wanilla" my favorite Horst word 😄

The grain bill for Maker's Mark is 70% Corn, 16% soft red winter wheat and 14% malted barley. It's aged in a medium toasted white oak barrel for 3 years.

How cool would it be to sit and drink whisky with this guy at a bar. Love the way he talks.

This guy is my second favourite whisk(e)y reviewer after Ralfy. I wish more of the older reviews were in English too.

He tasted the life out of that whiskey bravo

I really enjoy watching your reviews ,very passionate .

This and woodford reserve are my top favorites. An excellent whiskey indeed.

Got into whiskey a few months back. I've been drinking Makers Mark for quite awhile; but it never occured to me to genuinely TASTE it. I have to say, this old review holds up rather well. I've been drinking the 46 and can definitely vouch that it's one of the smoothest Whiskeys out there

I like Makers Mark and the comments to the review are hilarious. I bet it would take this lad a year to drink the one bottle lol.

Nicely done, great review. I just purchased a bottle of this red label Maker's Mark this afternoon and was on sale, in Florida, for $23......I agree with you, its a very nice bourbon.

I think this is one of the few bourbons that has a scotch like smoothness. Most of them are very unsophisticated with big deep flavours full of character with a sweetness in the background. I like that wild spirit Bourbon has no other whiskey brings, but there is a reason scotch is king. If you want to experience Rebounds of Bourbon and Scotch in the same bottle this is it.

6:12. ...and then vanilla and honey develop. It's a sweet one!

Daaaaaaaamn... your voice is husky heaven 😍

Something about you reminds me of Hannibal Lecter.

This bourbon is cut down to just 80 proof in Australia!!! Such a pity. It's almost too smooth 😆

Makers Mark is the best bourbon there is in my opinion

The way this guy feels about whiskey is how I feel about women. I'm going to buy a 5th of MM tonight.

I could watch this man drink whiskey all day

This channel is like listening to David Attenborough talk about wild zebra and gazelles but it's about whiskey and there's drinking. This is the perfect channel.

Love me some makers mark , Now the 46 .

Had my first sip of Knob Creek Ks bourbon( in sweden). It is my second bottle. M.M red top was my first. Wow what a difference between the two. Both are lovely IMO, better than any european whiskys I had before. Smell; Makers smells Vanilla KC smells like Irish Whisky. Taste. M.M is increadible..K.C smells like the best Irish whisky I've had. The finish; M.M long and robust. Strong and pleasant down the throat. K.C increadibly smooth..No taste at all but so gentle and sippable..,my wife preferred Knob Creek but I will have Maker's for Christmas

Horst you are the best!

I like how you say vanilla. Wanilla.

I enjoyed this tasting review very much🍸🍸🍸🇬🇧🇺🇸🎅🎄👍

Your review of Highland Park 12 had my mouth watering lol

Watch out Morgan Feeman this guy gunning for your voice lines xD

Maker's Mark and Maker's 46 are my go to bourbons lately. From original Maker's I get the notes of vanilla, spice, oak and caramel and also a definite hint of cherry in the nose. From the '46' I get all those notes but also a toasted bread adding to the complexity.. quite delicious imo.

What's amazing about MM also is that they managed to become an emblematic American icon in a relative short amount of time. I think the label says something like 1954, which when you talk about a distillery, is pretty recent.

I love this guy, it is like ASMR haha

I would take Maker's Mark over Jack Daniels or Johnny Walker Black Label anytime.

You ever think about scoring these whiskies for us?

Great swish sir 🥃

siempre se me antoja un trago cuando veo a este señor

Ah, Maker's Mark, it may be my favorite. I like the smoothness that the summer wheat brings to the taste. Many whisky's are a bit too spicy for me from the rye, Makers uses a high percentage of corn (70%) and no rye. I like it very much. I have also had a bottle of the 46 and its a bit spicy for me. Perhaps my taste needs to mature a bit? Love the quality of the bottle. Thanks, another nice review. I take it you are German? I spent many nice years in Germany, Schweinfurt in particular, while I was serving in the Army and have a very memory of Bayern and Germany and a whole. Thanks!

This is by far the best bourbon I've ever had. My house always had a bottle decorating a shelf. And I could listen to you talk all day, very soothing!

All of a sudden I’m craving whisky. .. the voice

In Australia Maker's Mark is 40% and it's trash. Bulleit Bourbon is much better in that price bracket. I don't know why they did it. There couldn't be a market more hostile to ABV reductions.

I like how you say "Wannila"

bro i drank that thinking it was some special flavouring... oh boy. that was not good... I'm 12...

I scraped some beam plank on my house with a rasp but it didn't work. Then when I turned up the volume on Whiskey com all irregularities fell off by themselves

This is a few years old however i did enjoy watching and find you interesting and like your descriptive interpretations in your reviews. Happy Holidays Cheers🍸🇬🇧🇺🇸🎅🎄👍

you need to try Canadian Crown Royal. They make it here in my province of Gimli, Manitoba, Canada.

His reviews, and voice tone is so soothing- very nice.

No roughness at all like home made ice cream it’s hard to stop going for it🥰❤️💯🍒

This dude sounds like a german Christopher Walken

Everyone’s talking about how soothing his voice is. Yes but I get really annoyed w the mouth and the microphone. You can hear his whole mouth. He has good reviews but I sometimes have to skip the mouth swishes lol

He sounds like a German Christopher Walken

Like most bourbons I like to open it up get a glass and come back to it in a couple weeks unscrew lid and find a much gentler bourbon

If Horst tells me it's good then f**k anyone elses opinion. Even if I don't like it then if Host does then something is wrong with me.

Horst reminds me and talks like my favorite actor Christopher walken

Drink more whiskey if you want to have such an amazing voice as this guy!

Rarely do you see Horst finish a glass. Must be good! Horst rocks.

Can you narrate my life?

This has become my bedtime music...

My favorite whiskey - wonderful wonderful dram.

I refuse to drink anything else.

Got this as a present. Cant wait to taste it!

Where do I learn how to speak like this?

I love your reviews Horst. I want to see you do a review of Buffalo Trace in English, I haven’t found a review of that on here from you. Would love to hear your opinion of it. Thanks

Use a table microphone - mouth swishing annoying

Dave Attenborough of whisky.

I don't care what u think. I like it with a drop of Coke zero.

I have just begun to enjoy bourbon whisky. I tried buffalo trace and enjoyed this very much - but makers mark I find bolder and lighter and more alive - so far it is my favorite - recently I tried Knob Creek aged 9 years but I found it harsh heavy and biting

6:39 Hardcore ASMR

This is a really great whiskey. One of the suprerior bourbons for sure. The vanilla taste, the balance and the feel of it is awesome.

“Very pleasant... ahhhhh...”

im only 19 yr old lol.

Dont smell it, just knock it back ffs

Whiskey . Com is one of the best tasters

he should play a bond movie villain

I think he presents with style 🎉

i am on my way to buy a bottle after listening to this review. i don't even drink whiskey. Just can't help myself

He's fucking creepy...

Greetings Horst, love your RU-vid channel. It's now 2022 and I'm late to the Maker's Mark tasting and review. I lost my liking for bourbon in my youth, drinking (and expelling) Jack Danials Old #7. I happened upon Maker's Mark while on holiday two years ago and was pleasantly surprised with its smooth flavor. I appreciated your review because what you tasted is what I tasted as well and that is what has kept me a loyal fan of Maker's Mark. I've been playing catch-up on your other tastings. I've already found several other whisky's I'd like to try. Thanks!

Great taste very smooth

Could you please write is there a huge difference between this (45) and 40% Maker's Mark. And if there is, would you kindly tell us about them. Thank you in advance. The Maker's Mark is my next bourbon on the list to taste it, before it I've tried Jim Beam, Wild Turkey (40%), Four Roses, and some of less famous brands. Jim Beam is my favourite so far, so could you maybe compare Maker's Mark 45% to Jim Beam 40%? Cheers!

The best Bourbon......all my American friends say the same. Nectar !

I have not yet found a bourban i like more than this. Got a few on the way to see if they top it, but mm and mm46 are smooth, flavorful, strong, and even a little oily. Some reminicence of scotch I agree.

Makers Mark twenty two quid in Morrisons but now twnety eight quid because it has a knitted pullover on! I don't think they're selling much.

A nice,clean,fresh bourbon..yummy..great value too!😋😋😋

Well somebody told me this is a good makers mark is a good bourbon I’ll give a try tho.. Also what do you think of Four Roses Bourbon.? Great review you guys are decent fellas Alan H

This was the first bottle of alcohol I purchased, and i have foolishly ruined it for myself forever... can't even look at it without feeling sick. Perhaps one day I can return to it, but for now, laphroig will have to suffice...

Why do i get the feeling this guy enjoys his makers with liver and fava beans? Can someone please check to see if that is his real face and not a mask made of human skin! Makers is pretty good bourbon but this guy creeps me out a little.

new to whisky, but i tasted maker mark along with you. it was rather intense in the mouth, as if my gums and tongue were being punched by the alcohol. I suppose this intensity is mainly brought fourth by the +5 abv.. Very smooth finish, perhaps the mouth burn almost distracts you from witnessing a gnarly finish. spot on with the notes you examined however :)

Love this guy,, the way he talks ,, calmly….He made me go to the liquor store around my house and got me one bottle,,right after I finished watching the video…

Just bought a bottle. Different, strong flavor, tasty and surprisingly easy going.

although its 90 proof, if I remember its smooth and neat and you can drink it on the rocks.😂

Sounds like Forrest gump playing ping pong under water
