Where can I find bottles for long-term storage??

Post by PurpleHaze »

I've read many topics about plastic and people saying "Don't use this" "Don't use that".

I'm just looking for a glass bottle with a screw cap that will not dissolve in alcohol. The easy and cheap way would be to use wine bottles and cork but I plan on making neutral spirits and I think natural cork would leave a taste.

I've searched on the web for liquor bottles, they are rare and most come with a plastic screw cap. Can't seem to find any info on what kind of plastic is used in the screw cap.

Brewhaus has liquor bottles most with plastic caps, again no info on plastic cap. They also have metal caps but no info on metal composition. I've read aluminum is not good with alcohol...

In a perfect world, I'd buy a glass bottle with a stainless steel screw cap that I could use for long term storage.

So can anyone help me in finding such a bottle or any bottle with a screw cap that is 100% safe for long term storage?

Also looking for larger 1 gallon type bottle with the same criteria for saving my heads and tails.
