Storage advice
For optimal storage of Aquavit whether unopened or opened apply the following practical guidelines:
- Temperature: Store the bottle at a stable cool temperature ideally between 55°F and 65°F (13°C to 18°C). Cooler temperatures around 40°F (4.4°C) are considered optimal by some experts to minimize aging and oxidation effects but standard cool room temperature is sufficient for preservation.
- Light Exposure: Keep the bottle in a dark place away from direct sunlight and artificial light sources as exposure to light can degrade the spirit by causing flavor changes and oxidation.
- Sealing: After opening ensure the bottle is tightly sealed to reduce oxygen exposure which can alter the flavor and quality over time. Avoid transferring the Aquavit to decanters as these can accelerate oxidation.
- Bottle Position: Always store the bottle upright. This prevents the alcohol from contacting the cork which can cause cork degradation and contamination of the spirit.
- Humidity: While spirits generally tolerate a range of humidity maintaining a moderate humidity level (around 50-70%) helps preserve cork integrity and prevent excessive drying or mold growth around the cap. This is more critical for corked bottles.
- Special Tips:
- For opened bottles with less liquid consider transferring the Aquavit into a smaller airtight container to reduce air contact and slow oxidation.
- Refrigeration or freezing is not necessary for storage but can be used if you prefer Aquavit chilled for serving without risking quality loss during long-term storage.
These conditions will best preserve Aquavit’s quality and extend its shelf life whether unopened or after the first pour.
