That's ridiculous, everybody knows zombies don't smoke & I've seen two sharknadoes...not skeered there either. Whiskey keeps its integrity though, if sealed...right? I just bought a commercial vacuum sealer, and was thinking they could be sealed after a period of time at 65%. Not a doomsday guy at all, but serious about the "Fire & Forget" option. You mentioned "time capsule", yeah more on that order. No worries about neighbs getting into it. Plenty of claymores & punji pits to keep that from ever happening...JK. But is 3-5 years about the max you can rest one, even a CC, without it hitting the point of diminishing quality? I value the input, and it will keep me from just ruining good sticks, if it is not possible. Was seriously thinking that total oxygen depravation after they were stabilized at a lower fixed temperature could have possibilities.
