DID YOU KNOW (2for1) How To Store Your OPEN Bottles of Whiskey If you like to sample different types of whiskies and whiskey cocktails, you will have multiple bottles open at a time. Having too many bottles open is like starting several books at one time never getting beyond the first chapter on any of them. Whisky oxidizes in an open bottle and will gradually dull its taste, but you do not have to finish a bottle in one night or weekend. You have a few months to ensure that you are enjoying it at its peak. If you can try to discipline yourself and keep open only the number of bottles you can finish within a four-month period to ensure you are getting the freshest pours. You should limit the oxygen's Impact, once you open a bottle, oxygen is already doing its work. If you're planning to work through the bottle quickly, simply replace the cork. For bottles you aren't going to finish within a few months, consider alternate strategies. Decanting the whisky into small sample bottles or pumping in inert gas between tastings. Basics Whiskey Storage (UNOPENED BOTTLES/COLLECTING) Mr. Edwards, I looked for this info after our last conversation. I hope it helps. Unlike wine, storing whisky is easy and doesn't require and does not require equipment. Whisky is more robust than wine and will not ripen or spoil within a sealed bottle. Store your bottles upright, never on their side. This is to protect the cork. If the cork has continued contact with the high strength alcohol this causes the cork to degrade and will give an unpleasant flavor to the whisky. Keep your whiskies from direct sunlight and extremely high temperature, exposing your whisky to extreme heat can lead to significant volume loss. Keeping your whiskey in an outside building could increase you chances of loss or damage.

Do you know, the use of barrel in Bourbon whisky 🥃 can't be reused for aging again and again. According to law, bourbon is a strictly American Native spirit that must be produced only in America. Perhaps, this is the reason everyone believes that real bourbon is made just in Kentucky.

Our 7th release is from...(drumroll please)...Westward Whiskey What a cask! Limited to just 396 bottles, it's the perfect summertime whiskey - full of juicy passion fruit notes - and is available here: https://lnkd.in/gtsJYhWQ If you’ve not seen Westward Whiskey before, it’s one to add to your radar. Hailing from the American Northwest, an area rich with barley, Westward in Portland, Oregon, crafts an incredibly fruit-forward style of whiskey, and is at the forefront of the American Single Malt Whiskey movement. We always have a bottle of their Pinot Noir cask on our home bar, so picking our Heart Cut cask alongside Miles Munroe, Master Blender, was an absolute dream. As soon as we tasted this cask we knew it was the one. A quick one on American Single Malt Whiskey. In 2016, Westward helped create the American Single Malt Whiskey Commission to establish, promote, and protect the growing category and its legacy. These guidelines are currently waiting for government ratification - in the hope that they become written into law in the not-too-distant future. It's a very exciting and pivotal moment for the category - turning history on its head, craft distillers are setting the rules, and the bigger whiskey companies are following—not the other way around. ONE TO WATCH! Have you tried Westward before? If so, we'd love to know. Cheers! 🥃 #whisky #whiskey #americansinglemaltwhiskey
