Wm. Maxwell 5 years old 100% Malt - b. 1960s - 75cl

Wm. Maxwell 100% Malt Scotch Whisky – 5 Years Old – Vintage Bottle with Original Box

Offered is a Wm. Maxwell 100% Malt Scotch Whisky, 5 Years Old, distilled and bottled in Scotland by Wm. Maxwell (Scotch Whisky) Ltd., Edinburgh, established 1796.
The lot includes the original cardboard presentation box, making it a complete vintage set.

The bottle retains its original screw cap, wax-sealed Italian import strip, and original labels, all consistent with mid-20th-century export bottlings for the Italian market.

Dating
This bottle can be dated based on several clear elements:
• Italian import strip seal with pre-metric and pre-modern tax layout
• Label wording “100% Malt Scotch Whisky” (a term commonly used before modern single malt regulations)
• Alcohol strength expressed as 43° (older continental notation)
• Importer listed as ITALIMPORT S.A.S. – Milano

These features place the bottling in the 1960s, most likely mid to late 1960s.

Condition
• Bottle: very good vintage condition
• Fill level: high, well-preserved for its age
• Label: original, with visible aging and patina
• Cap & seal: original, unbroken, with natural wax deterioration
• Box: original, showing wear, edge damage, and aging consistent with storage

This is a true vintage Scotch whisky, not a modern release, and a rare example of early continental-market malt whisky presentation.
