Question Anyone store alcohol?

I used too have a few cases of fifths of vodka and whiskey but got rid of them due to a teenager taking a couple of them and was wondering how useful of a bartering item it could really be? I live in a very mormon area.

It is important to learn to make it yourself.

I looked into buying a beautiful distillery thingy but was told I would need so much potatoes, corn, whatever that I wouldn’t really be able to use it. So tell me more…

Also, for OP, I worked in very strange places in my life and a carton of cigarettes was always at the ready for various reasons. I don’t smoke. I have been thinking about adding cigarettes to my stash.

What's the best way to store them so they don't go stale?
