Storage advice
For optimal storage of Aquavit follow these practical recommendations:
- Temperature: Store Aquavit in a cool place ideally at stable room temperature (around 15-20°C or 59-68°F). Refrigeration or freezing is not necessary for preservation though serving chilled is common.
- Light Exposure: Keep the bottle in a dark place or a cabinet away from direct sunlight or strong artificial light to prevent any potential degradation of flavor compounds.
- Sealing: Ensure the bottle is tightly sealed with its original cork or cap to prevent oxidation and evaporation preserving its flavor profile over time.
- Bottle Position: Store the bottle upright. This prevents prolonged contact of the spirit with the cork which can deteriorate the cork and affect the spirit’s quality.
- Humidity: While spirits are less sensitive to humidity than wine moderate humidity helps maintain cork integrity. Typical indoor humidity levels (40-60%) are adequate; no special humidity control is required.
- Special Tips for Aquavit:
- Aquavit generally does not improve with aging in the bottle so long-term storage is not necessary.
- Barrel-aged Aquavits can have more complex profiles but still do not significantly benefit from extended bottle aging.
- After opening keep the bottle tightly closed and store away from heat and light to prevent oxidative changes. Consumption within a reasonable timeframe (months rather than years) is advisable to maintain freshness.
These guidelines apply to both unopened and opened bottles to best preserve Aquavit's characteristic herbal flavors.
