Storage advice
For optimal storage of an Eau de Vie such as a lavender spirit apply the following practical recommendations to preserve its quality and shelf life:
- Temperature: Store consistently cool at about 15-20°C (59-68°F). Avoid fluctuations and high temperatures which can cause expansion and potentially degrade the spirit or damage the seal.
- Light Exposure: Keep the bottle in a dark place away from direct sunlight and artificial light to prevent deterioration of flavors and color.
- Sealing: Ensure the bottle is tightly sealed to minimize oxygen exposure. The integrity of the seal is crucial since oxygen can accelerate oxidation once opened or if the closure is loose.
- Bottle Position: Store bottles upright. This prevents the alcohol from contacting and potentially degrading the cork maintaining a better seal and protecting against unwanted flavors.
- Humidity: Moderate humidity (around 50-70%) is advisable to keep corks from drying out while avoiding mold growth. Though less critical than for wine balanced humidity helps maintain cork integrity.
- Special Storage Tips: Since Eau de Vie stops aging once bottled store it in stable conditions to preserve its matured profile without further changes. For unopened bottles cool dark and stable conditions virtually preserve the spirit indefinitely. After opening minimize air contact by re-capping tightly and consume within a reasonable timeframe to avoid gradual oxidation.
These guidelines align broadly with best practices for fine aged spirits derived from cognac and eau-de-vie styles ensuring the lavender spirit retains its intended character and quality over time.
