Evaporation in Whiskey

Hi there,

How do i prevent evaporation in miniature whiskies?

unfortunately I don't think you can. The bottles are porous and with time the contents do evaporate (some brands more than others). I collect Delft miniature houses that were given out on KLM airline containing a tot of gin. Some of them I have had for decades and if I shake them I can still hear the gin inside them. But the Wade whisky miniatures that I have have all dried up.

Has MadaboutJack or JPBon been visiting you lately? That would account for the "evaporation"!! lol

I should imagine that drinking the stuff should stop evaporation in its tracks!:D

You would never have guessed, would you.

I do have a solution to the problem of alcohol evaporating from the minutes - can't one put a sealed plastic band around the screw top bottle? Or else paint the area which breaks open with clear nail varnish just to seal it? That would help with the evaporation problem without making the bottle too much more difficult to unscrew. Just a suggestion ...
