Storage advice
For optimal storage of an Amaro like Contratto Fernet Liquore observe the following practical recommendations:
- Temperature: Store unopened bottles in a cool place ideally between 7°C and 16°C. Avoid heat and sudden temperature fluctuations as they degrade flavors and aromas.
- Light Exposure: Keep the bottle away from direct sunlight and strong artificial light. Light exposure can fade the color and spoil the aromatic quality. A dark cupboard or cabinet is recommended.
- Sealing: Ensure the bottle is tightly sealed especially after opening to minimize oxidation which negatively affects taste and aroma.
- Bottle Position: Store bottles upright rather than on their sides. This prevents prolonged contact between the liquid and the cap reducing oxidation risk.
- Humidity: Maintain humidity around 70% to prevent mold on the exterior or the cork if applicable though typical Amaro bottles use screw caps or tightly sealed corks.
- Opened Bottle Storage: If the amaro is spirit-based like Contratto Fernet it can be stored at room temperature after opening but must be tightly sealed to preserve flavor. Use within 6 to 12 months for best quality. Refrigeration is not strictly necessary unless specified by the producer but it can extend freshness. For wine-based amari refrigeration after opening is recommended with consumption advised within 1 to 2 months.
These storage practices help maintain the quality and extend the shelf life of the amaro by protecting it from heat light oxygen and unsuitable humidity.
