Just a quick insight, the whiskey itself doesn't quite age in the bottle. However, what CAN happen is that if you have happened to opened the bottle, poured out a small dram of it, then sealed the bottle and put it away for 10 years. Then.. the small amount of air trapped in the bottle will oxidize the whiskey, and more often than not, it will smooth-out any wrinkles or harshness "the bite" of the whiskey itself.

Hope that helped
