Storage advice

For optimal storage of Navy Strength Gin consider the following practical recommendations:

- Temperature: Store the gin in a cool stable environment ideally at room temperature or slightly cooler. Avoid large temperature fluctuations and do not expose it to heat sources as heat can accelerate flavor degradation.

- Light exposure: Keep the bottle in a dark area or a cupboard away from direct sunlight. Light exposure can degrade the gin’s aroma and flavor compounds over time.

- Sealing: Ensure the bottle’s cap or cork is tightly sealed at all times. A secure closure minimizes oxidation and evaporation preserving the gin’s quality for longer.

- Bottle position: Store the bottle upright especially if it has a natural cork. Laying bottles with natural cork on their side can cause the cork to dissolve slightly into the gin negatively affecting taste. Artificial corks or screw caps do not require upright storage but it’s still recommended for consistency.

- Humidity: Normal indoor humidity levels are sufficient; extreme humidity is not a significant concern for gin storage since the bottle is sealed. However keeping the bottle in a moderately humid environment can protect natural corks from drying out if applicable.

- Additional tips for unopened bottles: Unopened Navy Strength Gin can be stored at room temperature in a cool dark place without issue. There is no benefit in refrigerating or freezing gin as alcohol content prevents freezing under normal home freezer conditions.

- Additional tips for opened bottles: Once opened oxidation gradually alters the flavor so it is best to consume the gin within about one year. To slow oxidation keep the bottle tightly sealed stored cool and dark. Transferring remaining gin to a smaller bottle to reduce air exposure can also help extend flavor preservation.
