Maker’s Mark Teams with L.A. Dodgers on Special Release
Maker’s Mark announced a collaboration with the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation (LADF) to create a custom bourbon, Maker’s Mark Champion Selection x Los Angeles Dodgers, as a toast to the team’s 2024 World Series championship season.
Maker’s Mark has donated the first barrel, approximately 275 bottles, to the LADF for charitable auctions and events directly benefiting wildfire relief and recovery efforts across Los Angeles. The commemorative bottle will also be available at select retailers across Greater Los Angeles.
“We’re delighted to partner with this championship team to create a one-of-a-kind bourbon that not only celebrates their historic season but also supports important wildfire relief and recovery efforts,” Rob Samuels, Managing Director of Maker’s Mark and eighth-generation whisky maker, said in a news release.
“This extraordinary partnership with Maker’s Mark not only celebrates a championship season, but also creates meaningful impact beyond the field,” Nichol Whiteman, Chief Executive Officer of the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation, said. “Proceeds from the first barrel will support our wildfire relief efforts—helping families rebuild, recover. We’re proud to collaborate with Maker’s Mark to turn a commemorative bourbon into a catalyst for lasting impact for Los Angeles.”
Baseball and bourbon fans will have the opportunity to get involved and give back throughout the 2025 MLB season.
Maker’s Mark Champion Selection x Los Angeles Dodgers is a one-of-a-kind bourbon that reflects the spirit of the team — part of the brand’s Private Selection program, which allows individuals, retail and restaurant partners to purchase a barrel and explore their own taste visions of Maker’s Mark. Bottled at 112.1 proof and available for the suggested retail price of $74.99.

About Maker’s Mark
Maker’s Mark began with the innovative spirit of Margie and Bill Samuels, Sr., who in 1953, fulfilled their dream to create a delicious bourbon without the bite, using soft red winter wheat instead of rye to enhance the softness, sweetness and signature creaminess. Maker’s Mark is handmade, hand-dipped in our signature red wax, and every barrel continues to be rotated by hand and is aged to taste not time. For more information, visit www.makersmark.com.
