Beer doesn’t last very long either with a good taste. If you’ve bought several hundred cases for your ‘bug out’ location, be sure to rotate it out at least every 3 months.

Whiskey would probably last much longer.

Distilled spirits have NO expiration date. They will still be just fine long after everyone here is gone.

So would most red wine.

It isn’t necessary to keep it really cold, either. A root cellar or cave would work just fine.

I want to add to the list: olives survive quite well if immersed in vinegar. I just opened a jar of olives - black, green, calamata - that is over ten years old. The olives were in a vinegar solution. They taste terrific!

Better to just have a still ready so you can make what you need, when you need it :)

Heck, the selling point of whiskey is that it has lasted so long already. Not sure how something like that would go bad.

I learned that Bailey’s crystalizes once opened so I make sure the entire bottle is all consumed within a very short period of time. OTOH I have Bourbon and Brandy that has been around forever.
