Storage advice

For optimal storage of Aged Rum the following practical recommendations apply:

- Temperature: Maintain a stable cool temperature ideally between 18°C and 24°C (64°F to 75°F) or for some sources between 15°C and 20°C (59°F to 68°F). Avoid temperature fluctuations and heat sources like radiators or stoves as heat accelerates evaporation and flavor degradation.

- Light Exposure: Store the bottle in a dark place away from direct sunlight. UV rays can degrade the rum’s components and alter its flavors. Using the original tinted or opaque bottle or keeping the bottle inside its box can add protection against light damage.

- Sealing: Ensure the bottle is tightly sealed to prevent oxygen ingress which causes oxidation and flavor loss. Check the cork condition; if it is natural cork inspect it periodically as it may deteriorate over time. Replace defective corks or use synthetic alternatives if needed. Avoid leaving the bottle open or using pour spouts for long periods.

- Bottle Position: Store the bottle upright rather than on its side. Unlike wine rum’s high alcohol content can degrade natural corks if in prolonged contact with the liquid potentially contaminating the rum and causing leakage.

- Humidity: Keep the storage environment dry and well ventilated to prevent mold growth on the cork and damage to the label. Excessive humidity can be detrimental to bottle integrity.

- Storage for Opened Bottles: After opening rum can start to oxidize. If the bottle is still mostly full (e.g. 75%) it may stay good for up to a year under proper conditions. However when the bottle is less than half full flavor degradation accelerates and it’s advisable to consume within a few months. To minimize oxidation for partial bottles transfer the rum into smaller containers to reduce the air headspace.

- Additional Considerations: Avoid refrigeration or freezing since very low temperatures can harm the rum’s aroma profile although rum’s high alcohol content prevents freezing at normal freezer temperatures.

Following these guidelines will help preserve the rum’s quality and extend its shelf life without altering its profile.
