Storage advice

For optimum storage of an Eau de Vie type beverage infused with coffee spirit such as a coffee eaux de vie here are detailed practical recommendations focused on preserving quality and shelf life:

- Temperature: Store the bottle in a cool environment ideally between 10°C to 15°C (50°F to 59°F). Avoid temperature fluctuations and keep it away from heat sources such as ovens or direct sunlight as heat accelerates oxidation and flavor degradation.

- Light Exposure: Keep the bottle in the dark or in opaque containers as much as possible. Exposure to light especially UV light can break down sensitive compounds in the drink altering flavor and quality.

- Sealing: Ensure the bottle is sealed tightly with its original cap or cork. Exposure to air increases oxidation which can degrade the quality rapidly once opened. For opened bottles reseal immediately after use to minimize air contact.

- Bottle Position: Store the bottle upright. Unlike wine spirits and eaux de vie should not be stored on their side because the high alcohol content can degrade corks over time if in contact possibly leading to leakage or contamination.

- Humidity: Maintain moderate humidity around 50-70% to prevent corks (if applicable) from drying or molding. However too high humidity can promote mold growth on labels or corks.

- Special Considerations:

- Unopened Bottles: Can be kept for many years under proper conditions without significant degradation due to alcohol’s preservative properties.

- Opened Bottles: Once opened flavor and aroma can slowly degrade over 1-2 years depending on storage conditions and bottle size due to oxygen exposure. Preferably consume within this timeframe.

- Additional Tips:

- Store the bottle in a dark cabinet or liquor cabinet away from kitchen heat.

- Avoid storing near strong-smelling products as spirits can sometimes absorb odors.

- If using corks check them occasionally for dryness or damage and consider switching to a stopper designed for spirits.

Applying these practical conditions—cool temperature no light airtight sealing upright bottle position and moderate humidity—will optimally preserve the quality and shelf life of coffee-infused Eau de Vie both before and after opening.
