Sometimes, when you get bored
Posted By SeanMike on November 28, 2007
And you’re on a cleaning rampage like I was, you think, hey, let’s catalogue ye olde bar.
I even zoomed in a bit, but you don’t need all THOSE pictures.Â
This is the top right.
Bottom right.
And bottom left.
While I was at it, I took the time to write down what I have. Stars via The Complete Book of Spirits by Anthony Dias Blue, but given that I don’t always agree with him (or think that the liquor has changed since he wrote the book).

About the author
Funny! I was talking with a co-worker yesterday about his bar (consisting of vodka, peach vodka, some sort of malt beverage and beer) and my bar. I sat down and started writing out all the bottles of hooch I have off the top of my head. After two notebook pages I gave up.
Sean, it looks like you’ve been holding out on me some! I didn’t know you had Cuarenta y Tres or creme de cacao. I may have to raid your bar sometime.
BTW, pernod isn’t a bitter. HA!
Looks like sometime this weekend I may have to take a trip to the ABC store/Schneiders . . .
-M
I’ve had the 43 forever. And the creme de cocoa has been hiding in the back of the cabinet…which I also rearranged.
And yeah, the Pernod ended up there and I was too lazy to move it.
I was thinking the same thing. Because, you know, I don’t have enough. Matt will probably shoot me.
Only three bourbons?!?

Which is why I need MORE!
Only 5 Rums???
Tou need at least 20 more..
