Another thought on storing that nice bottle
Similar to Snikt, I have a few bottles that I had planned save and drink over a number of years. Like Snikt, I want to keep the whisky as tasty as possible.
I thought the concern was that the cork may dry out (leading air to leak in to the bottle and ruin the taste). The local Specs told me their policy for nice bottles was to turn them on their side for 7-10 seconds every 30-90 days.
Being lazy (and forgetful), I was wondering if melting some wax over the corked bottle woud help with the issue by creating a seal? Not something for every bottle, just the nice ones that only get opened once every month or year.
Thanks for any advice,
Chris
