Dipped in custom vibrant orange wax to match its basketball-inspired label, the Maker's Mark New York Knicks Championship Edition 1L is an absolute must-have tribute celebrating the team's historic 2026 title run. This standout 1-liter bottle swaps standard labeling for an eye-catching, pebbled orange design printed to look like a basketball, complete with black seams and the official Knicks logo, honoring true Manhattan basketball legacy with unbelievable style. With allocations exceptionally tight and strictly limited ahead of the upcoming season, this extraordinary collectible brings together the franchise's triumphant spirit and Kentucky's finest craft in a rare, highly coveted release that New York fans and serious collectors won't want to miss.

Inside the bottle, Star Hill Farm's signature red winter wheat mashbill completely bypasses the sharp clove bite of high-rye whiskeys to deliver a rich, velvety palate. Smooth aromas of sweet vanilla bean and toasted oak shift into rich caramel, bright cherry, and soft baking spices across the tongue. When our team poured this in-house at USQ, its rounded weight held up exceptionally well neat, on a large rock, or stirred into a classic cocktail. For game night, our team recommends a full New York Sour build: 2 oz bourbon, ¾ oz fresh lemon juice, and ¾ oz simple syrup shaken over ice, strained into a rocks glass, and finished with a float of dry red wine.
