"The Hearts Release" - Wood Finishing is Back! Maker's Mark's NEW Bourbon Whiskey

[@dbltime]

Just scored this bottle! It is now officially fall. Can't wait to crack it open and enjoy. Thanks for the review. Cheers.🥃

[@adirtysock9720]

What a perfect cork pop! I had to rewind to hear it again.

[@ItsBourbonNight]

It was pretty epic, wasn't it?

[@billcaffrey2672]

My brother has gifted this bottle to me for my 8/7 birthday and I can’t wait to pop it open!!! You guys are still THE BEST.

[@barryrickert6544]

Cool!! Hope I can find it here in Pa. Stay safe, stay armed , stay free. God Bless.

[@RJR2222]

I think you were describing Magnum Ice Cream bar. I really enjoy this bottle. Caramel and milk chocolate. Definitely happy with purchase at $80

[@WhiskeyPop]

None of us here have ever been big fans of Makers products, but were always open to new bottles! Thanks for the review!!

[@jimpaul3491]

There ain’t no way ever! Love it. Keep up the great content. Thanks

[@TobeyJF]

Just picked this up for $64.95 and am really looking forward to popping it's cork after your review. Cheers.

[@Spencer_WNC]

I myself, absolutely love The Heart release! I would love to see y'all compare it with Cellar Aged

[@jasonczfan8658]

She's right, summer sucks. Here in Southern California, it has been blistering hot for about 10 straight weeks. I'm ready for cool weather. Also just picked this up at a Total Wine here and I do like it.

[@johnshenk-vm2ic]

I love it. Great review guys! I'll take any store/single pick as well. Maker's does it right!

[@userperson5259]

Always the best reviews here! Thanks again!!

[@billcaffrey2672]

Fall is my fav season. I’m with Sarah! 😮

[@DVoVo]

This bottle is definitely one of my favorites of 2024 (though to be fair, i don’t try/buy too much 😅). But I’m a sucker for the bottle design, so it’s a win win for me since the juice is great too 🙌🏼

[@XO_Sanada]

Dang… I was hoping to find this bottle! Thanks for another banger you two 🫶🏻

[@-RONNIE]

As always thank you for the video enjoy your weekend 🥃

[@hoaksone1]

Picked up 2 bottles for $59.98 at Sam’s Club. I’m enjoying every sip!!

[@guitarswhiskeyandgolf]

Wow 59 bucks??

[@josephloibissio4818]

Just picked this up a few days ago and I was very pleased with it. We had cellar aged for $25 a pour on our fall trip if you remember.

[@mistermom310]

That would be the General Foods International Delights coffee in the little rectangular tins. I'm 64 and I remember the Eiffel Tower commercials ☕️🤣

[@Stage1Riviera]

You are making me look forward to opening my bottle. I think I paid close to $90 though.

[@nickp5511]

Nice review! Store owner friend let me have one for a 57.00 bucks. Not really my thing. Rather have the BEP or BRT-01. Cheers!

[@RipReturns]

Is this not essentially Makers 46 Cask Strength?

[@fushnick06]

General Foods International Coffees was the 80's coffee commercial that Chad was talking about😂

[@DrWarbird]

There's a special place in hell for folks that gouge their customers. Pretty sure it's the Greed ring.

[@WhiskeyDearg-MichaelS]

From meeting you both, I know you are nice, caring, and respectful folk....however, I hope when you saw the price of the pour in the bar you asked to speak to the bar manager and then laughed heartily in his face, before walking out of the bar with a flourish.

[@dougsowell]

Cellar aged never really came to Nevada. I saw one in a raffle and the rest all seem to be in airport duty free shops. Lame. (I'm bitter. Lol) At least I got the heart release. It's pretty good.

[@877-MASH-NOW]

WHISKEY CHEERS 😎

[@davidvoth7218]

I love this bottle. Have heard from some people that think its the same thing as Makers Mark 46, just has a new label and priced higher. Do you know what the difference is?

[@JK13A]

It's at minimum a higher proof. Its likely just blended differently for a different flavor.

[@altaylor9186]

Chad the cheater! Drinking before Sarah has a chance to try it too …..shame shame shame ! Love you guy’s. Peace from the bch

[@laurenceshutske4529]

A local liquor store wanted $198 for it. I passed

[@ishaanbhardwaj8992]

interestingly there are at least 2 releases of this, mine is an April 2024 bottling date

[@bourbonapprentice]

Why not just get 46 or 46 Cask Strength? Both cheaper. I’m a Maker’s fan, but I feel like this lacks anything to grab my attention

[@MrZanzibar123]

The price is jacked up by seven dollars here and it’s just sitting on the shelf.

[@dwh-1]

I picked one of these up and honestly didn't care for it. It will sit on the shelf for years to come. So many 50-60$ bottles that are better.

[@KillCoMentalMusings]

GIVE IT TO MEEEEEE! (How about a sample swap?) 🖖😎🥃

[@jamesstreet1144]

While this sounds good, it seems to be a little gimmicky to me. Isn’t it basically the stave profile from Maker’s 46 they just did it twice and it spent some time in the cellar. I’ll probably pass.

[@roscoejenkins4221]

MM46 CS for the win... save 20 bucks

[@thomasaccuntius9946]

I enjoy Maker's Mark......but I can't and haven't kept up with all the different series, especially when they use the numbers and letters. I am a graduated Ambassador and was at Maker's for a tour and got to see some of the construction of the Celler. With all the distilleries coming out with different finishes its hard to keep up. Also I don't want to spend $75 for something I might not like.

[@johng5710]

Is this really that different from the Makers 46 cask strength?

[@bobkuhn861]

😊💖🐶🐶🐶🥃

[@guitarswhiskeyandgolf]

What bugs me is Makers is charging 80 bucks but is not really aging the whiskey they are just using g staves to mimic age but charging prices as if this is 10 year old whiskey. It's the same old same old from Makers. Whst they need to do is mass release the Cellar aged they are a big enough mass producer to be able to do that by now

[@danielp3024]

I feel like we are drinking different Heart's Release bourbons. I find the nose to be lovely, but, it is REALLY tannin-ie?? Very very drying and not an enjoyable pour (for me). If it were a bottle of wine I would say it was corked. My least favorite of the Wood-Finishing series by far.

[@WhiskyForBeginners]

Maybe it does have cork taint. It can happen to whisky too - I had a bottle of Balcones Baby Blue which was just *awful* and later I realized it was corked.

[@eafarrar]

This one is overwhelmingly mediocre.
