How to preserve whiskey?

cold drink

El whiskey, one of my favorite drinks, is considered a spirit drink. Although it has enough body, to preserve it requires some small care that today you will find out in HombresconEstilo.com

Like most alcoholic beverages, whiskey must be stored in a dark, cool and dry place. We say in a dark place, because if the sun's rays come into contact with the drink, it can become clear and change the taste and consistency. The best way to store it is inside the box, since artificial light can also damage it.

Contrary to wine bottles, whiskey bottles should be stored upright, as the contact of the liquid with the lid can damage the product.

Regarding the amount of storage time, it will depend on whether the bottle is open or closed. If it is closed, the time is unlimited since the amount of alcohol in the product makes it never change the taste and aroma. If the bottle has already been opened, this will depend on the amount of air left in the bottle. Air is the number 1 enemy of spirits. Once the air comes into contact with the liquid, it will begin to oxidize, changing the taste and its molecular composition. Therefore, we recommend that you keep the whiskey open for a period of no more than 1 year.
