There are cognac's (sp) that have 150 years of aging.
From wikipedia:
L'Esprit de Courvoisier - Courvoisier's leading cognac, presented in a hand-cut Lalique decanter, blended from eaux-de-vie up to 200 years old, and individually numbered.
Moyet Antiques - Moyet's Très Vieille Fine Champagne and Très Vieille Grand Champagne cognacs blended from some barrels over 150 years old, individually numbered and signed by the cellar master.

A co worker was cleaning out his house during a move and found a bottle of whiskey that was over 40 years old. He had quit drinking so he gave it to me.
It was wonderful!
So how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop? THe world may never know.

I've got some corn and oats that was put up ( maybe i should say down- below grade)
in glass 1 gal jugs in 1985 when it was closed down it still taste the same
as it did then a barrel that is about the same age is as smooth as
frogs hair.

45% 3/4 full did not use sugar at that time got grain for zip

Humm... like Goose eye said... 23 years is a long time to remember an exact taste.
All I know is that booze DOES age in glass... it doesn't pick up the compounds from the oak like a barrel, but it DOES age.
When I make oak whiskey I prefer to drink it white. It's good straight outta the still, but 100 days of age in a bottle does noticably smooth it.
I'm not sayin' yer wrong Dnderhead... I agree that age in a barrel and age in a bottle are different... I'm just sayin' that booze in glass DOES age and smooth.
