An apparatus and process are provided for improving the flavor of a bottle of liquor. An adapter seals the bottle, and an air inlet tube extends from the atmosphere through the adapter into the liquor in the bottle. A vacuum pump connected to the bottle draws air from the atmosphere through the air inlet tube into the liquor. The air percolates bubbles up through the liquor and is exhausted through the vacuum pump. Volatile compounds are drawn out of the liquor as a result of this action and discharged with the air, improving the flavor of the liquor.

[ I claim:] [1.] An apparatus for treating bottled liquor to remove volatiles from the liquor which impair its taste, comprising:an adapter for insertion into a mouth of the bottle to block the bottle mouth;an air inlet tube passing through the adapter from an air inlet open to the atmosphere and extending into the bottle to an outlet in a lower portion of the bottle;said adapter having an outlet passage communicating with the bottle sealed from the atmosphere when said adapter is inserted into the bottle mouth;a vacuum pump in fluid communication through said adapter outlet passage with the bottle for air to be drawn from the atmosphere through said air inlet tube and into the liquor in the bottle;said vacuum pump further causing the air to rise through the bottle and remove the liquor volatiles through said adapter outlet passage into said vacuum pump.
