About 1973, I went overnight hiking in Alaska and brought along a plastic quart bottle of wine. I used the plastic bottle to save weight in my backpack.
After several hours of day hiking on a sunny day, we returned to camp for dinner and wine. When it came time to drink the wine, we had a wonderful, expected, taste on our minds. On the very first sip, we all gagged and spit out the wine. It tasted like something in a chem lab brown bottle. We all reached for water and tried several rinses. I don't even drink water out of a plastic cup anymore. We poured the rest of the wine out onto the ground, and it would be interesting today to go back and see if any mutant plants sprung up there.

nice if you can afford the professional. I used to work in a Pharmacy and did extensive work in Laboratories and it's still a rule to use tinted glass for long term storage. If you can limit the amount of air in it, so much the better but that's HTD.
The packaging industry always weighs the cost and plastic is cheap. Glass is a much better container in this case. I've seen many products lately that should be in glass but are now in plastic. Most companies look at numbers on spreadsheets so it's best to buy glass containers as extra's and poor the contents into them for LT storage, LT being as short as a few months.
My wife stores all kinds of things in the cabinets and last week I found something dripping out one cab. The plastic syrup container that looked semi melted was still unopened and it took me an hour to clean the mess. Someone is not making plastic like they use to.
