Storage advice
For optimal storage of Aquavit follow these practical guidelines:
- Temperature: Store Aquavit at a stable cool room temperature ideally between 15°C and 20°C (59°F to 68°F). Refrigeration is not necessary for preservation; some may chill it before serving but for storage room temperature is sufficient.
- Light Exposure: Keep the bottle in a dark place away from direct sunlight or harsh artificial light as light can degrade the spirit’s flavor compounds over time.
- Sealing: Ensure the bottle is tightly sealed with its original cork or cap to prevent oxidation and evaporation which can alter the taste and quality. For opened bottles reseal promptly and keep them upright.
- Bottle Position: Store bottles in an upright position. This prevents prolonged contact between the spirit and the cork preserving the cork’s integrity and preventing unwanted flavors or spoilage.
- Humidity: Normal indoor humidity levels (40-70%) are adequate; excessive humidity is not a significant concern for bottled spirits like Aquavit unlike wine. Just avoid very damp conditions that might damage labels or corks.
- Special Storage Tips: Aquavit generally does not improve significantly with age once bottled so long-term aging is not necessary. Keep unaged Aquavit protected from temperature fluctuations and light to maintain its fresh herbal character. For opened bottles consumption within a reasonable timeframe (several months) is recommended to enjoy the spirit’s optimal flavor.
These guidelines apply both to unopened and opened bottles with tighter sealing and consumption sooner advised after opening to preserve quality.
