Hey, can this stuff go bad? I must have the same bottle I've had for 10 years!

The oldest bottle I have in my collection is a bottle of Edouard Pernod Absinthe, it is over 100 years old now. It should taste like nectar of the gods, unfortunately for me, my bottle was first opened in the 1920s and is so air oxidized it tastes like wet cardboard flavored liquor. I have other bottles of Pastis and Absinthe which have been opened about 10 years. Yes I have noticed a color change in some of them, but the flavor is still intact so far.
