Storage advice
For proper storage of London Dry Gin whether unopened or opened consider the following practical guidelines to preserve its quality and extend shelf life:
- Temperature: Store gin in a cool environment ideally between 15°C to 20°C (59°F to 68°F). For opened bottles cooler temperatures close to refrigeration at around 4°C (39°F) are beneficial to minimize oxidation and evaporation.
- Light Exposure: Keep the bottle away from direct sunlight or strong artificial light. Light can degrade the botanicals and overall quality of the gin over time so storing it in a dark cupboard or a shaded area is optimal.
- Sealing: Always ensure the bottle is tightly sealed with its original cap or cork after use. Proper sealing prevents air from entering which slows oxidation and keeps flavors stable. For bottles sealed with natural corks store upright to avoid alcohol contact that could degrade the cork and affect taste.
- Bottle Position: Store bottles upright. This is especially important for bottles with natural cork stoppers to prevent cork deterioration and contamination of the gin. Artificial screw caps can be stored upright or horizontally but upright is preferred for consistency.
- Humidity: Moderate humidity is preferred to protect any cork stoppers from drying out or becoming moldy. Typical indoor humidity levels are usually sufficient; no special humidity control is required.
- Special Tips:
- Once opened gin starts to slowly oxidize leading to subtle changes in flavor. To slow this process decant remaining gin from a half-full bottle into a smaller container to reduce air exposure.
- Avoid fluctuations in temperature which can cause the spirit to expand and contract potentially impacting flavor integrity.
- If long-term storage is intended and the bottle is unopened refrigeration can extend shelf life up to two years without quality loss.
By following these storage recommendations both unopened and opened bottles of London Dry Gin can maintain their quality flavor profile and shelf life effectively.
