Why was Green Label discontinued?
Diageo discontinued Green Label globally in 2012 (except for Taiwan, where demand for blended malts is very strong), as part of a reconstruction of the range that saw the introduction of Gold Label Reserve and Platinum Label. The brand was reintroduced in 2016 and is again globally available.
How long will whiskey last once opened?
about 1 to 2 years
Most whiskey scientists believe that an opened bottle of whiskey lasts about 1 to 2 years—if it’s half full. Whiskey expires about 6 months if it’s a quarter or less full. That’s because the less whiskey in the bottle, the more oxygen.

After opening a bottle of whiskey and slowly emptying it, its character and flavor will slowly be altered. Again, this is an effect of oxidation. Sometimes a whiskey might improve when halfway emptied, other times it might lose some of its enticement.

Is Johnnie Walker Green Label worth it?
Strictly on its own merits, I find the whisky to be enjoyable, interesting, and effortlessly drinkable.

What’s the best way to store an opened bottle of whisky?
As for storing opened bottles, instead of burning out the oxygen (you risk leaving propane gas in the bottle), get a bottle of Private Preserve(Amazon). It’ll leave a layer of carbon dioxide (which is heavier than oxygen) in the bottle separating the alcohol from the oxygen, thereby minimizing the effects of oxidation.
What kind of light does a bottle of whisky need?
If you have a dark room, that generally will suffice, but a cupboard or cabinet is best. You want to avoid leaving it in direct sunlight. Ultraviolet light destroys tannins, which aren’t present in a high quantity in whisky but are still there (they actually come from the cask).
How long can a bottle of Mackinlay’s whisky last?
1-2 years. If it’s sealed and kept in the right conditions, it could (theoretically) last forever. In fact, famed explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton abandoned an Antarctic expedition in 1907. That expedition included several bottles of Mackinlay’s and three were discovered over a hundred years later after sitting in -30 degrees Celsius.
