10 years

Does Triple Sec expire?

Even though triple sec is a liqueur, it's shelf life is pretty much indefinite. With its high alcohol by volume content of about 35% to 40%, it's similar to amaretto. It doesn't contain any perishable ingredients, so there's not much in it that can spoil.

Does vermouth need to be refrigerated?

Vermouth Whether it's dry vermouth (maybe you're making a Fifty-Fifty Martini), sweet red vermouth (for Negronis), or the in between bianco (for a new twist on a Negroni), it needs to go in the fridge. Montagano notes that the sweeter reds will last a little longer, but don't let it go longer than a month.

Do you refrigerate Amaro?

If you do happen to have a bottle of this kind of amaro, it needs to go in the fridge after opening, just like vermouth, and it will last just as long, about two weeks.

Do you need to refrigerate Amaro Nonino?

Amari can be kept at room temperature – their sugar content helps keep them shelf-stable. Vermouths should always be refrigerated after opening and used within a couple weeks, if possible. ... Amaro Nonino has an earthy nose with notes of bitter-orange and cinnamon.

Can Amaro go bad?

Liqueurs like amari are generally pretty shelf stable and will last for a long time. But if you don't finish an open bottle, it will eventually oxidize and turn. If it does, you may notice that the liquid inside gets thicker—that's because previously unfermented sugars turn into glycerin.

What is similar to Amaro?

The best substitutes for amaro are Gammel Dansk, Chartreuse, Bonal, and Cynar 70. If you need a no/low alcohol replacement, consider using Chinotto or Angustoro Bitters. Any substitute will provide a different flavor but in most cases, they won't be out of place in whatever you are trying to make.

How do you know if Scotch has gone bad?

A good rule of thumb is to check the level in the bottle. If the level has gone down to the base of the neck, there's a good chance that the whisky inside will have a slight metallic taste or bland oxidized taste. ... If the bottle has gone below the shoulder, it may be spoiled and might not be safe to drink.
