Hi every one, we just collected our very first barter item (if it lasts that long "Gulp Gulp"), a Dewars 1 Gallon (3.7 L) bottle of Scotch from the 1960's still in original box . We swaped it for a few items laying around the house that we never use. We were assured that it's still drinkable, does anyone know if this would this be correct? The tear you see in the cap foil is not actually a tear but is where the wire cap seal is. Thanks.

Unlike wine, whisky does not mature in the bottle. So even if you keep a 12 year old bottle for 100 years, it will always remain a 12 year old whisky. As long as the bottle is kept out of direct sunlight, the Scotch Whisky will neither improve nor deteriorate, even if it is opened. Whisky that is stored at very low temperatures can become cloudy, but the cloudiness should disappear when the whisky is returned to room temperature. www.scotch-whisky.org.uk/understanding-scotch/faqs/Enjoy!!!!!
