Storage advice

For optimal storage of Joven Mezcal here are practical recommendations addressing temperature light exposure sealing bottle position humidity and special considerations for both unopened and opened bottles:

- Temperature: Store the mezcal between 60 and 65°F (15-18°C) to maintain flavor stability and prevent heat-related degradation. Avoid temperature fluctuations and extreme heat sources.

- Light exposure: Keep the bottle in a dark place or shaded area completely away from direct sunlight. Light exposure can compromise the quality and flavor.

- Sealing: Always keep the original cork or cap tightly sealed when not in use to minimize air exposure. Oxidation caused by poor sealing deteriorates aroma and taste over time.

- Bottle position: Store the bottle upright. This prevents the alcohol from breaking down the cork which can spoil the mezcal and avoids prolonged contact of liquid with the cork reducing deterioration risk.

- Humidity: While specific humidity levels are less critical for mezcal than wine maintaining moderate humidity in the storage area helps preserve cork integrity and prevent it from drying out or molding.

- Special tips for opened bottles: After opening keep the bottle tightly sealed and stored in a cool dark place. If you don’t plan to consume it within a few months consider transferring the mezcal into smaller bottles to reduce air contact and extend quality retention.

Following these guidelines preserves the mezcal’s quality and flavor ensuring both unopened and opened bottles remain enjoyable over time.
