Description

Maker’s Mark Gold Wax 101 Proof – Limited Edition Autographed Pint (1970s)

Step into a rare slice of bourbon history with this Maker’s Mark Gold Wax 101 Proof Limited Edition autograph pint, crafted in the 1970s. This collectible bottling features the distinguished gold-dipped wax seal, which set it apart from the standard red wax versions of its era. Bottled at 101 proof (50.5% ABV), it delivers a richer, bolder expression while maintaining the smooth wheated bourbon tradition Maker’s Mark is known for.

What makes this piece especially special is the autograph — a signature from the distillery or a key figure (such as Bill Samuels Jr.) adds provenance and elevates its collector’s value. The pint-sized format (half‑liter pint) captures all the depth and character of the full‑size bottle, but in a more intimate, display‑friendly package.

Tasting notes typically include warm vanilla, honeyed caramel, soft oak, and spicy baking spice, followed by a long finish that balances sweetness with oak tannins. Given its vintage, expect a rich amber color and patina that reflect decades of storage, adding both aesthetic and sentimental worth.
