Great way to convert a basement into a very useful entertainment space. Thank you for sharing your awesome set-up.

Does anyone have a Rum List? A Tequila list? It’s amazing how many bottles there are to select from. Maybe your 5 favorite bottles of Rum and Tequila. Thanks for the suggestions. Allen

For me, My favorite rums are Plantation XO and Mount Gay Black Barrel. Tequila: Qui and El Crisiano

One day I plan to travel down the Cognac road...something further than standard Hennessy.

Thank you for posting your favorites. I’ve never heard of these before. I will add them to my shopping list.

So with a fine spirit collection, there always has to be the "Holy Grail" that people strive to get or taste. For bourbons I think its fair to say Pappy Van Winkle is the one most people want and with it being allocated finding it is dang near impossible. There's a scotch that I would like to try and it's readily available every time I go to Total Wine. Just sitting there in that glass case saying buy me. Here's a picture of it along with the price tag.

I think I will ask the BBC financial wizards what's the best way to pay for it?

I spent a week in Edinburgh Scotland in August of 2017. Across the street from the Hotel there was an underground Scotch Bar that had hundreds of bottles to select from. It was my first and only time to have a shot of Blantons Gold. They had a glass display case with several bottles of Glenfiddich from the 1940’s. They were not for sale. I can only imagine what they would sell for at auction. Here is one of my favorite travel photos. This is a photo out of my Hotel room. Awesome country to go on a Scotch tour.

Blanton’s? Did you say Blanton’s?

These aren’t the whole collection but it’s a pretty good representation.

Make sure you Gentlemen add Midleton Barry Crockett to your shopping list. I discovered Barry Crocket Legacy Irish Whiskey while driving around the Island. It’s really amazing.

[kacordy]

This is the rarest bottle I’ve ever bought. Only 6000 made and was only available from this historic distiller, in person, in Scotland. I just cracked it open last Christmas.

I’ve got that Middleton also. It’s over in the guest house. Forgot about that one.
