yeah i just edited my post to include that as i noticed it was price matched. Thanks mate
Might want to include it in the title too, I'd imagine quite a few wouldn't generally buy spirits off Amazon
oooh good idea, willdo! thanks for the advice.
I guess $75 RRP is for MM 46
is MM 46 better than this or just a different taste?
It is 47% strength vs 40%
haha thanks i stick to 40% :)
At least it is stronger, which usually correlates with the taste intensity.
Although it's 47% but I personally think it has a more complex flavor and very smooth compared to the regular Mark .
That's the point of the stronger versions of spirits, not just getting drunk faster. The spirits have quite high alcohol content out of barrel 50-60+% abv, so called cask strength. After that they are diluted to reduce the alcohol content. Unfortunately, the taste is diluted as well.
So I prefer to drink stronger versions purely because of their taste.
Maker’s 46 is excellent. I normally wait till it comes down to the $60ish mark (give or take and this requires CR cashback) and then get a bottle. It’s not the best bourbon I’ve had but it’s a great everyday bourbon. It’s way better than the regular MM, more intense flavour (also helped by the extra ABV)
This used to regularly get down to $40 at Dan's.
Ah inflation 🥲
Don't forget taxation.
edited the post to include this as its a good deal. Thanks for the pickup mate!
MM is pretty nice 👌
I've wanted to try this for ages. Finally grabbed some. Hope I'm not disappointed.
It is pretty decent for the price
You can't be a connoisseur without having tried MM.
Exactly. I've always liked bourbon but I never got much past the cheap stuff until recently so I've got quite a list to work through. I've heard this is a good start.
Wild Turkey 101
Buffalo Trace is great value too.
@hippo2s: Turkey 101 is def one of the best value whiskies going here in Oz considering the ABV/proof.
Maybe a bit less so since the recent tax increase and price bump though.
Rare Breed is excellent and a step above 101, though the price reflects that. Still good value for a cask strength whiskey here in taxstralia
Man they drink it in every second movie I seem to see
You are watching the wrong movies.
Watched John Wick?
Maybe give Buffalo Trace a go next.
Truth, pretty cheap too
Failed to add item to cart.
Dimple 12yo is $53 at BWS and the 15 yo $69
Tempted. I picked up Glenmorangie last time on a whim as it was reduced to $72 and is probably my favourite so far, but always keen on trying different things.
$72? Get the dimple 15yo for $69
Just tried it then. It's good, but I kept thinking the whole time I was drinking it that it reminded me of a smell I couldn't put my finger on. Eventually the missus suggested sauna wood (cedar?), and yep - that's it!
Not totally sure, but I think I prefer the Glenmorangie. Will need to give it a couple more goes!
@Hurg: If you like smoky you can try this 😃

While i dont think much of this straight, it is fantastic for a whisky sour
Also grabbed bottle of gin, oh my wallet. :/
Every home liquor cabinet should have MM, perfect for whiskey sours!
This and the old stronger original Wild Turkey used to be my two favourites in the day when I ………
Take it one day at a time.
Yep, hit the nail on the head.
