I moved recently to a home that gets really warm during the daytime. We're talking inside temps in the mid 80s in the summertime. There is no central A/C and I wouldn't be turing it on anyway while I'm at work. So I worry about my alcohol and the effects of heat on it.
I'm curious if there are any recommendations on refrigerating alcohol. This is what I'm doing now:
Beer - Yes, but only until I'm ready to drink it. Otherwise it stays outside.
Wine - No. But I try to store it away in kitchen cabinets that might be a few degrees cooler. Also, I don't have a bottle of wine that costs more than $25 so I'm not super concerned here.
Spirits - Right now, the only thing in the fridge in this category is a Macallan 17 year. Oh, and a bottle of 10 dollar rum for some reason. But the whiskey, bourbon, gin, etc. is all outside.
Liquers - Pretty much everything in the fridge and for me this includes Campari, Chartreuse, and Luxardo
Bitters - everything in the fridge. Angostura, Peychaud, orange bitters
Thoughts?
