Until you'd posted a little bit ago about the Whiskey Library, I'd never heard of it. And I'm so fascinated by it now!
Whiskey does not age in a bottle. All you have to do is have a tight lid to keep the alcohol from evaporating, and a whiskey that has been in a glass bottle for 100 years will be the same as it was when it was poured in.
