You may want to wax over/around the cap and keep it in a dark cabinet. Whiskey does not age in the bottle, but it can be damaged by too much heat, sunlight, etc that causes some to evaporate out of the cork/rubber seal.
It's in my cool basement in a cabinet. I haven't thought about waxing around cap though. Thanks for the idea... I'll look into that!
And you don't need a membership to purchase alcohol at Costco or Sam's. (I think it's that Indiana won't allow the membership requirement, but I read it on the signs in the stores.)
Years ago I purchased a bottle of Pinch (scotch), bases on the tax stamp, that was distilled in my birth year and bottled after aging. I was saving it for a memorable occasion. After 72 years I really doubt that it will be fit to drink. It was sealed with a wired cork.
Interesting. My two favorite bourbon's are basil hardens and knob creek which appear to be polar opposites!
. Almost as interesting as my other point is that basil haydens is listed toward spicy rye whereas I find it to be very mellow and smooth. Buffalo Trace, Wild Turkey 101, Makers and Makers 46, Eagle Rare, Knob Creek, all pretty budget friendly and cover a lot of ground.Interesting.

Do any of the bourbons on that chart stand out as a good budget option for someone looking to try new bourbons?
