it does not get old (at least in my house) as long as you keep it tightly sealed/lid on tight. the alchol is a preservative. drink and enjoy. If you need help drinking it , call me.

gin is never safe to drink. It won't spoil though.

I found a bottle in my garage that had been there for about 10 years. It was kind of hot and tasted like pee but I am still living.

It doesnt get old.
and never in my house either.

no

i wouldnt drink gin if you bought it 5 minutes ago, im not big on drinking christmas tree flavored vodka

Your bottle of gin is fine to drink completely safe, Liquor lasts and is good indefinitely....

I think Jerry B found his dad's pee bottle that was originally a bottle of gin.

Gin doesn't go bad but it will lose its aromas and flavors slowly over time but not to where you would really notice. It will also evaporate and the ethyl alcohol will volatilize . Its 40% alcohol so it won't go "bad" and be unsafe to drink but it will slowly lose it strength.
Just drink it quick and you won't have to worry.

Liquor properly stored does not change nor lose characteristics. You may have seen some evaporation, yet the liquor contains the same properties

Its still good.
