If you buy several bottles at a time like I do and store them away for awhile until you need a new one, check them periodically. I went to get a brand new unopened one, and pretty much the entire bottle had evaropated. Must have been a bad seal. It was maybe 6-8 weeks old. My fault I guess.

A good trick to avoid that, remove the wrap from your bottles and make sure the caps are tight. Often the caps are screwed on incorrectly or not tight enough and the liquid leaks or evaporates.

When you've tightened your caps, seal the bottles with several turns of Teflon plumbing tape. Buy the thicker (pink or yellow). Teflon is inert to poppers and they will ensure a good seal of your bottles.

I've been doing this for years and my stash lasts a long time. You can also put your treasure in the fridge (but not in the freezer) if you want to prolong the conservation up to a year.

I had to let my local store know about this, as a few came with the labels messed up due to leakage.

Why not the freezer?

Of course, it can also be a freezer with a constant temperature below zero. The highest recommended temperature is 10 °C
