Storage advice

For storing a liqueur like cranberry-flavored liqueur optimal conditions focus on preserving its flavor aroma and color while preventing oxidation and deterioration:

- Temperature: Store the liqueur at a stable cool temperature between 15°C and 20°C (59°F to 68°F). Avoid heat sources and temperature fluctuations as expansion and contraction can degrade the stopper and increase oxidation risk.

- Light Exposure: Keep the bottle away from direct sunlight and strong artificial light. Light exposure can break down aromatic compounds and affect color and taste especially in clear or light-colored bottles. Use a dark cabinet or a place with minimal light or UV protection.

- Bottle Position: Store the bottle upright to minimize the liquid's contact with the cork or stopper preventing deterioration of the seal and reducing risk of contamination.

- Sealing: Ensure the bottle is tightly sealed when not in use. Oxygen exposure causes oxidation which can dull flavors and degrade quality. After opening re-cork or reseal immediately to limit air contact.

- Humidity: Maintain ambient humidity between 50% and 70% to keep any natural cork stopper from drying out and shrinking which could compromise the seal. Excessively dry environments can damage corks and labels.

- Special Tips for Liqueurs: Since liqueurs contain sugar and flavorings avoid freezing temperatures as settling or crystallization may occur. Also rapid temperature changes should be avoided to preserve consistency and flavor integrity.

For unopened bottles: Store in a cool dark stable environment following the above parameters.

For opened bottles: Limit air exposure by sealing tightly keep upright and store in consistent cool and dark conditions to maximize shelf life and retain quality.

These measures will help maintain the liqueur’s optimal characteristics and extend its shelf life.
