Storage advice

For aged rum optimal storage to preserve its quality and shelf life involves specific conditions regarding temperature light exposure sealing bottle position humidity and handling opened vs. unopened bottles:

- Temperature: Maintain a stable cool environment ideally between 18°C and 24°C (64°F to 75°F). Avoid heat sources and temperature fluctuations as these can accelerate deterioration of flavors and aromas.

- Light Exposure: Store in a dark place away from direct sunlight or intense artificial light. UV rays can degrade rum by altering its chemical composition and impacting aroma and color.

- Sealing: Ensure the bottle is always tightly sealed with an airtight cork or cap to prevent oxidation and evaporation. If the original cork deteriorates replace it to maintain an airtight seal. For opened bottles with low liquid levels transfer the rum to smaller containers to reduce air contact and slow oxidation.

- Bottle Position: Store bottles upright rather than on their side. This prevents the rum from prolonged contact with the cork which can deteriorate and compromise the seal allowing air in.

- Humidity: Keep storage humidity moderate and consistent. Excessive humidity can damage labels and encourage mold growth especially on corks—but low humidity is not generally a problem for the spirit inside.

- Special tips for opened bottles: Once opened rum quality slowly declines due to oxidation. A bottle that remains mostly full can maintain its character for up to a year but when only quarter full it may degrade within a few months. Avoid refrigeration as cold temperatures do not improve preservation and may negatively affect aroma.

These practical measures will help maintain the integrity and flavor profile of aged rum over time whether unopened or after opening.
