I recently came into possession of a nearly full bottle of Maker's Mark, thanks to a girl's night my wife had at our apartment.  I know what you are thinking, "No girl would bring bourbon to girl's night!"  Hey, what are you trying to say?!?  Well, she did bring it, and had the grace and courtesy to leave it behind for a real man to drink.  And drink I have.  I find that a simple tumbler of whisky on the rocks makes for a fine drink at the end of a hard day.  Low on carbs too!  I think that Maker's is a great bourbon, and not too hard on the pocketbook either.  Compare it to Crown Royal or Canadian Mist.  It's worth a try if you haven't already.
