Suh-Weet!

We got ours about 1.5 years ago -- they make it a fun visit.

Just polished off the last of the three bottles that had my name on the label.

Free IIRC, all you pay is the cost of the bottles you buy.

Yup. The Ambassador program is free. You sign up and patiently wait your 10 years. To help the time go by, Maker's marketing department will send you occasional humorous mailings and funny Christmas gifts. One year we got a Christmas sweater for our Maker's bottle.

When you receive the Golden Ticket, it's time to head back to Maker's. You get a nice, huge Ambassador's name badge and join the other folks on the distillery tour. Afterwards, you can purchase bottles with your name on the label and hand-dip them in Maker's trademark wax.

Nice program made fun by Maker's Mark.

Though I believe the odds are slim to none that you're actually receiving a bottle with any bourbon from the barrel on which your name was.
"I'm here for my bourbon"
Ok, I'll get it! *runs off and returns with a bottle*
"Umm... don't you need my name, or number or something in order to pick the right bottle?"
