Any thoughts?

Unfortunately MM is not my daily pour, but let me tell ya' (and MM if you are listening!) if the 95 proof that goes to Japan and even more so if the 100 Proof stuff ever came here it would definitely find its way into my bar more often. I just find MM to be so much more flavorful and full at character at those higher proofs. Still though, I do sometimes open up a bottle of MM to mix things up a bit.

I still don't understand why damn furriners get bourbon like this and we don't. It's just un-American.
And, yeah, I'd buy a lot more Maker's if I could get the higher proof (although I've never had the privilege of tasting it).

I thought the whole idea behind the MM marketing was they didn't want to have a second bottling in the U.S. because it might detract from their standard one!? Ie. if there's a "super-premium" Maker's, then what does that make the red-wax one...that's right: MIDSHELF.
