Do spirits 'go off', Do they enjoy a use by date or is that a silly interview?


I've just found an unfurl bottle from a few christmas's ago!

Answers:
Oops! I'm afraid you'll have to pour it down the toilet! (Don't forget to drink it first, though, otherwise it'd be a consume!).

Bailey's or something like that might dance off, but anything over nearly 20% alcohol is not going to deteriorate so much that it would be poisonous. Some things in the drink might oxidise and cause it taste bitter or sour, though. Straight spirits - whisky, gin, rum, vodka, brandy and so on would not really go bad.


Other Answers:

If they aint been initiate there shouldnt be a problem.
But it also depends on what sympathetic of spirit it is.
But i dont think you hold anything to worry almost, it should be ok

I don't presume spirits 'go off', but i may be wrong. Anything consumed by humans i.e food and drink has to hold a use-by and sell-by date by law.


swig it an see!!

should be fine


it's already bad don't drink it!

very silly


here is only one food/drink that doesn't run off
it's honey, adjectives others have a shelf time

The alcohol content contained by hard alcohol, such as your tequila, hang on to it from going bad. Most beer and wine will move about bad after time, although some wine will age okay if properly stored.

Drink up!


at hand all wrong. spirits WILL run bad, loose near potency and flavor, but don't worry, it take 15-20 years after it's opened, and won't hurt you when it does.


Alcohol wont jump off except beer, it be a medical preservative for many years... it be used in body factor jars.. previously phamalderhyde.plus, i never keep mine longer plenty to find out...

Tequila won't travel off, spirits above 25% won't spoil as they don't enjoy as many additives such as cream or flavours.

Someone mentioned that honey is the solitary food or drink without a shelf enthusiasm - it's the only NATURAL food that doesn't spoil.


It has probalbly not get much more dangerous than it be when bottled.


If closed no problem... but please get some dutiful tequila like Don Julio or Casa Noble

spirits do not go rotten as the high alcohol content prevents the growth of microbes, and no, it is not law to own a sell by date any.

you shouldn't guess the answers to questions if you dont know
