I didn't really follow the rest of what was said after this, but Maker's Mark is simply one of the nicest bourbon's out there. No idea why someone would compare bourbon to cognac, but meh.
Maker's Mark in an old fashioned is sublime. Have you tried the Maker's Mark 46? A friend of mine brought it around when we had them over for dinner. It was an absolutely gorgeous bourbon.
I love my Scotch whiskies, but I am also a big lover of bourbon's when the mood suits. There's nothing better than winding down with a glass of single malt or a bourbon at the end of the day
