Maker's Mark released a series of festive limited-edition bourbon bottles that look like they're dressed up in holiday sweaters.
Fans of the brand can coordinate with the limited-edition Maker's Mark holiday bottles thanks to a line of bespoke sweaters Maker's Mark created with global knitwear brand The Endery. The handcrafted sweaters take cues from vintage pattern books and they make the most of deadstock materials like alpaca wool yarn that has was discarded or recycled and would have otherwise gone to waste. The uniqueness of each sweater recalls similar features of Maker's Mark packaging, like the red wax dip capping each bottle.
The sales of each $250 sweater will help to directly support The Endery's workers in Peru, all the while championing slow fashion and celebrating the season of giving.
