Storage advice
For optimal storage of Cognac whether unopened or opened follow these practical guidelines:
- Temperature: Maintain a stable cool environment between 15-20°C (59-68°F). Avoid extreme heat which can expand the spirit and damage seals and avoid cold temperatures that can dull flavor. Consistency in temperature is essential to preserve the Cognac’s profile.
- Light Exposure: Store the bottle in a dark place away from any direct light especially sunlight or UV rays as light degrades the quality over time.
- Sealing: Keep the bottle tightly sealed with its original cork or cap to minimize evaporation and oxidation. High alcohol content can degrade the cork if stored improperly. If the bottle is opened promptly resealing is critical to slow quality loss.
- Bottle Position: Always store Cognac upright not on its side. This prevents the spirit from prolonged contact with the cork which could deteriorate the cork and negatively affect taste.
- Humidity: Maintain moderate humidity around 50-70%. Too dry an environment risks drying out corks while too much humidity risks damage to labels but generally does not harm the spirit itself.
- Vibration: Store the bottle in a location free from vibrations or movement. Vibrations can accelerate chemical changes and impair the aging or flavor stability of the Cognac.
Additional storage tips include:
- Avoid fluctuating temperatures and heat sources such as near radiators ovens or direct sunlight through windows as these can accelerate degradation.
- For opened bottles minimize air exposure by keeping the bottle sealed tightly and consider transferring remaining Cognac to smaller bottles to reduce the volume of air inside thereby preserving quality longer.
- Ideal storage locations are cool cellars or dedicated cabinets that can maintain stable appropriate temperature and humidity without light exposure.
By strictly controlling these factors the Cognac’s integrity flavor and shelf life can be optimally preserved over time.
