Storage advice

For Flavored Vodka optimal storage to preserve quality and shelf life involves these practical recommendations:

- Temperature: Store at a cool temperature between 15°C to 18°C (59°F to 64°F) for unopened bottles to maintain smoothness and prevent flavor degradation. For opened bottles refrigeration at around 4°C to 10°C (40°F to 50°F) is ideal to preserve flavor without dulling nuances. Avoid freezing as prolonged freezing can mute delicate flavor notes and may risk compromising the bottle seal.

- Light Exposure: Keep the bottle in a dark place away from direct sunlight or strong UV light. Light exposure can degrade added flavors and alter taste and occasionally color. A shaded cabinet or cellar is preferable.

- Sealing: Always ensure the bottle is tightly sealed after each use to minimize contact with air which accelerates flavor loss and evaporation. If the bottle has a cork store it upright to prevent the cork from touching the liquid reducing risk of cork deterioration and off-flavors.

- Bottle Position: Store bottles upright rather than on their side. Unlike wine where contact with the cork is beneficial vodka bottles—especially those with cork closures—should be kept upright to maintain seal integrity and prevent flavor contamination.

- Humidity: Moderate humidity levels are sufficient; extreme dryness or humidity has minimal impact on spirits but storing in a typical cellar or cabinet environment is fine. No special humidity control is generally required for vodka.

- Special Tips:
- Flavored vodkas have a shorter shelf life than unflavored due to added ingredients typically best consumed within 1-2 years unopened and within six months to a year after opening to enjoy peak flavor.
- Avoid storing in the freezer to prevent dulling flavor and risking bottle seal damage.
- For opened bottles chilling enhances taste when serving but should not be mistaken for long-term storage.

These measures help maintain the integrity of the alcoholic content and the delicate added flavor compounds typical in flavored vodka.
