Vintage Marie Brizard Creme De Cacao Liqueur Miniature Bottle Appraisal

Vintage Marie Brizard Crème de Cacao Liqueur Miniature Bottle

A vintage 1/10 pint (approx. 50ml) miniature glass bottle of Marie Brizard Cacao Liqueur. The bottle is constructed from clear flint glass with a bulbous lower body that tapers into a long, slender neck. It features a gold-toned metal screw-cap closure, which is still secured by an intact red and white striped U.S. Internal Revenue tax stamp. The stamp provides significant provenance, indicating an estimated production era from the 1960s to early 1970s. The primary label is a black band around the center with 'CACAO liqueur' in white and gold lettering, complemented by a secondary oval label below displaying the 'Marie Brizard' brand name in a serif typeface. The liquid inside is a deep amber or mahogany color, typical of a 'fève de cacao' or dark chocolate liqueur. The bottle's condition appears excellent with no visible chips or cracks. The labels show minimal edge wear and no significant staining. The fill level (ullage) is remarkably high for its age, suggesting a tight seal. This item represents a mid-century example of French liquor exporting for the North American market, often collected for barware displays or historical alcohol research.
