Storage advice
For optimal storage of Calvados including the 8-year reserve mini bottle the following practical recommendations should be observed to best preserve quality and shelf life:
- Temperature: Store between 10°C and 15°C (50°F to 59°F). Avoid temperatures above 20°C (68°F) as heat can cause bitterness and degrade flavor and avoid temperatures too low (below 10°C) which may inhibit flavor development.
- Light Exposure: Keep the bottle in a dark place away from any direct sunlight or UV light to prevent chemical degradation and preservation of flavor and color.
- Sealing: Ensure the bottle is airtight with the original cork or seal fully intact. Proper sealing prevents oxidation which leads to flavor loss.
- Bottle Position: Store the bottle upright to keep the cork or closure moist and prevent drying out that would admit oxygen and spoil the Calvados. Upright storage also reduces surface contact with air inside the bottle.
- Humidity: Maintain a relative humidity between 60% and 70% to prevent cork drying or mold growth. Too low humidity dries corks causing shrinkage and oxidation risk too high humidity leads to mold and cork failure.
- Additional Tips Specific to Calvados:
- Because Calvados is a distilled apple brandy once opened oxidation occurs faster than in unopened bottles—consume within 1-2 years of opening for best quality. Keep opened bottles tightly sealed and stored under the same conditions.
- Avoid frequent movement or vibration to prevent agitation of the spirit.
