Default Another bottle question

If the bottles take standard PET pop bottle caps thaen these are
readily available at most wine making supply stores. They make also
sell 28mm Polyseal caps which will aklso fit PET bottles, and are
better quality, last longer, and supposedly make a better seal.

HOWEVER, I haven't checked many whiskey bottles, but I didn't think
that the PET caps fit them.

I would suggest checking carefully before buying a lot of these caps.
If possible, take a sample bottle to the retailer.
