Announcing the Maker’s Mark Championship Selection x Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation Bourbon to Celebrate 2024 World Series Title and Support Wildfire Relief.
Maker’s Mark has partnered with the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation (LADF) to unveil a special bottling in honor of the Dodgers’ 2024 World Series championship. The commemorative release, titled Maker’s Mark Champion Selection x Los Angeles Dodgers, is part of the brand’s Private Selection program and blends sports celebration with charitable impact.
Charity-First Release Supports Wildfire Recovery
The first barrel—yielding approximately 275 bottles—has been donated by Maker’s Mark to the LADF. Proceeds from these bottles will be directed to wildfire relief and recovery efforts across the Los Angeles area. “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,” said Rob Samuels, Managing Director of Maker’s Mark.
Fans Can Give Back Throughout the 2025 MLB Season
Starting June 25 and running through July 7, fans can bid in an online auction via MLB.com for signed memorabilia and experiences, including a bottle signed by Rob Samuels. During Dodgers home games, fans can also donate at the LADF Homebase Store; those who contribute $500 or more will receive a complimentary bottle of the limited-edition bourbon, while supplies last.
Tasting Notes Reflect Team Spirit
Bottled at 112.1 proof, Maker’s Mark Champion Selection x Los Angeles Dodgers features a “bold yet balanced” profile, with notes of caramel-coated popcorn, spiced peanuts, and warm baking spices. The bottle retails for $74.99 and will be available at select retailers throughout Greater Los Angeles.
