What's the shelf life on liquor and spirits?

Serious question...
I have several bottles (opened) that traveled with me 4 years ago up here. I am throwing away the flavored liquors, except for the coffee Patron (that stuff is awesome), but what about vodka, etc?

I found a 3 or 4 year old bottle of 100 proof Fireball

It somehow got stashed in the back of the cabinet behind some other stuff. I drank it and didn't die.

won't go bad. Flavored liqueurs can sour, but you can smell them and usually tell. Or, if you see sugars crystallizing in the bottle it's done for. Otherwise, they can last a few years as well.

What's the shelf life on liquor and spirits? About An Hour.

Depending on the circumstances. Maybe a little more, maybe a little less. All depends. Tigers win, a little longer. Tigers lose, less than an hour fer sure.

from the 1930's that was stuck in a hole in a wall inside his bedroom that was found in 2007 when my cousin remodeled his house.
Tasted like ####, but I'm still alive.
