Vintage Hiram Walker Creme de Menthe Miniature Bottle

This is a vintage 50ml miniature glass bottle ('nip') containing Hiram Walker Creme de Menthe liqueur. The bottle is constructed of clear glass with a classic rounded base and an elongated neck. The liquid inside is a deep, vibrant green, typical of mint liqueurs with added color. The primary label features a cream background with gold-tone borders and green typography, displaying the Hiram Walker crest and the brand name. The label specifies '60 Proof' and '50ml'. A notable feature for dating this item is the presence of a pink paper tax stamp over the gold-toned metal screw cap; the stamp is partially broken/torn on the right side but remains attached. Based on the label design and the style of the tax stamp, this bottle likely dates from the late 1960s to the 1970s. The overall condition is good for its age, though the paper label shows light yellowing and the tax stamp is distressed. The fill level appears slightly lowered due to natural evaporation over several decades (ullage). Manufacturing details point to Hiram Walker & Sons, Inc., a prominent American/Canadian distillery founded in the 19th century. This item is a common yet representative piece of mid-century barware and spirits history.
