Any danger in drinking an opened bottle of 16 year old liquor?

I know I should probably leave it alone, but that isn't going to happen.
I found half a bottle of 28% Disaronno that the best I can figure is from 1992. It tastes fine and the liquid is clear without any sediment in the bottom. It tastes fine too.
Now I'd figure that the alcohol content would take care of any bacteria or other growth and it's been kept in absolutely no sunlight in 70F temperature.
Is there anything I'm not thinking of that would make it a bad idea to not consume? I probably will anyways, but I'm interested in what could possibly go wrong with old liquor.

Be careful, it might be haunted

At first I was put off by it because it looks like someone had spilled it years ago and it was literally caramelized to the bottom of the cabinet, but it still seems good. Not my choice in liquor by any means, but I'm surprised by how well it goes down.
Oh and I think it's 16 years old by the archaic stamp on the back label that says 8292. I'm thinking 8/02/92, but for all I know it could be much older.
And if it's haunted, I'll know by morning.

I've drank 30 yr old Crown Royal before and it wasn't harmful. Granted, the bottle was unopened but I'm not sure how much that matters with alcohol.

Well if it's from the future, then it's been sitting in the cabinet for at least the past 16 years.

If you can find a way to accelerate the bottle to 88 mph you can send it back... to the future!

I tried, but a tree got in the way. Maybe the glass fragments might make their way back there.
