I'm moving into my first apartment and I'm looking to start my own mini bar. I am looking for advice on good brands of whiskey, rum, vodka, scotch, and tequila that are not extremely expensive but good tasting and classy. I also am looking for some idea for two red and two white wines to have in the house that can go with a variety of meals. I love cooking fish and pasta especially. Any advice is appreciated - thanks in advance!Alcohol staples for a home bar?
Some Jack Daniels, Southern Comfort, Dewar's Scotch, Some Capt. Morgan Or Bacardi's rums. Iceberg Vodka, And anything but Cuervo Tequila..... Wines? Fish? Try some Sake.Alcohol staples for a home bar?
