Don't get why want to buy whiskey to keep. Not like they will age further in bottle.

Unless you are talking those limited quantities the likes of hibiki 40 or yamazaki 55

As said I can't see the point unless it is some fancy expensive limited stuff that even has potential to appreciate. I do not have that information and shall not judge further.

If you fancy storing, the standard storage principle always applies. Ie cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, smoke. Whiskey should be kept upright since there's no potential to age in bottle so no point to increase surface area.

Well I drank quite a few bottles so far haven't die or any adverse effect. Just don't be a high profile party pooper will ya

The only proper comparison I have is jagermeister. Tastes the same between lesapda and proper mall purchased. Others like Bombay Sapphire, Roku gin, Bacardi rum, etc whiskeys, somehow all tastes the same to me within the class type of liquor.

As said I didn't feel anything bad happen yet. Do your due diligence if buying from lesapda

I have good suspicion what's the matter with that sticker shit, but I just wanna lay low don't want comment too much. Trust you also got similar idea what's going on.

What I will say is possibly "took out" from channels meant for duty free sales
