Dear Ambassador,
Each year, the Louisville and Loretto offices receive letters and emails from Ambassador service men and women overseas, asking us to send them a few of our Maker's Mark cigars. Since troops serving in the Middle East are not allowed to consume alcohol, the requests come in as "the next best way" to ring in and toast the New Year.
For the requests that we receive, we put together a couple of boxes of cigars to let our soldiers know how much we appreciate them and what they do. Again this year, I'd like to invite you to help us say thanks to our friends and family members overseas by sending a Maker's Mark cigar to a serviceperson. You can go to our online gift shop and send to your own loved one, or make a donation to someone who could use a little cheer as they spend their holidays away from home.
Go to www.makersmarkgiftshop.com to participate. You'll see a section of the site with details on how to make your donation. Please keep in mind that the goal is to get as many cigars overseas as possible, in time for the New Year celebration. We know how much you like to share – thank you for helping us support our troops.
Have a safe and happy holiday season, from all of your friends at Maker's Mark.
