Maker's Mark Ambassador Gift 2017

I'm a "Maker's Mark Ambassador" (which means that I get junk mail from Maker's Mark and someday down the road if I want to go visit the distillery I'll get to hand dip a couple of bottles from the cask that currently has my name on it. I think I have 5 more years to wait).

Anyway, every year they send out a little Christmas gift to the Ambassadors that is usually an item meant to dress up a bottle of Maker's in a festive holiday style. One year it was a nicely crocheted little Christmas sweater that fits on the bottle, another year was a tiny little set of ear muffs and another year was a scarf. I think the idea is that you can dress up a bottle you'd give as a gift or decorate around the house with it.

This year's gift is a pair of little rubber collars that have a mount for a wire hanger that you hang a little sprig of plastic mistletoe from over the top of the bottle.


I gotta ask y'all ... looking at these things, what was your FIRST thought as to their application?

Is Maker's being cheeky? Or are they really unaware? [ROFL1]


Mrs Zundfolge was not amused. :p

I'll take the other one.

I'd almost bet you could sell/gift as many as you could get your hands on.

I am traveling (shocker I know), and mine came in the mail Tuesday. Told my wife to open it and tell me what it was. She opened it up, and there was a slight pause.... Then "Oh! It goes on the bottle."

Pour us all a double neat and we'll discuss it with the ambassador.
