To keep your gin fresh for as long as possible, make sure to store it in a sealed bottle (obviously), and keep it away from strong-smelling foods (you don't want your gin to start tasting like last week's fish). You should also try to keep it at a consistent temperature, around 15-20°C (59-68°F) - not too hot, not too cold.
Now, I know what you're thinking: what about the color of the gin? If it starts to look a bit hazy or discolored, is it still safe to drink? The answer is... maybe. If the color change is due to oxidation, it's probably still fine, but if it's due to contamination, you might want to err on the side of caution.

So, to sum it all up: gin doesn't really go bad, but it can lose its flavor and aroma over time if not stored properly. Just remember to keep it cool, dark, and sealed, and you'll be sipping on delicious gin for years to come. And if you're still unsure, just use your common sense - if it looks, smells, or tastes off, it's probably best to err on the side of caution.
In conclusion, the next time you're tempted to ask: does gin go off? You'll know the answer. And if you don't, well, now you do. Cheers to that, and remember to always drink responsibly - or not, we won't judge.
