- Depending on the jurisdiction we all have to wait until a specified age before we can consume alcohol but did you ever consider that certain alcohols have to wait even longer before they’re old enough to be consumed?!?
- The essential reason for aging alcohols is to change the character of the liquid for the better. Note to the wise; only beer and wine continue to age once they’ve been bottled. A 12-year old Scotch that has been sitting on a shelf for 10 years is still a 12-year old Scotch.
- Alcoholic beverages that are known to improve with age include wine, Scotch, brandy, port, whiskey, bourbon, cognac, and tequila.
