How To Store Irish Whiskey?

In general, when storing whiskey bottles, keep them in a cool place. Variable temperature can cause the liquid in the bottle to expand. This can damage the fungus. Avoid areas with direct sunlight. Whiskey exposed to the sun for a long time may taste altered. Keep it straight. Although wines can be stored horizontally, this is not the case with whiskey. Place the bottle flat on the rack to prevent the cork from splintering.
