How many bottles of hard liquor do you have at home?

DH and I rarely drink (about 1 time per week or less) but have probably around 30 bottles leftover from parties, etc.

10 - 5 of them are different gins. We love a GnT.

The were bought for specific recipes or bought for cocktails.

LOL, yeah, don't count wine as hard liquor

Probably 12-15?

28, but I barely drink them (and DW doesn't drink liquor at all). I guess it's for all the entertaining I think I'll do, but most of our friends don't drink booze either (everyone mostly drinks wine).

About a dozen whiskies (mostly Scotch, then Bourbon, a couple ryes, and a Canadian from younger days). The rest a mix of what a basic bar should have--tequila, rum, vodka, couple of gins, cognac, calvados, basic liqueurs like Bailey's and Kahlua. Oh, and a couple of moonshines, and an Applejack.

We used to have a couple more kinds but didn't bother to restock. DH used to make a drink or two for himself after work but he gave up drinking.

I'm so impressed by people who do this. We are wine people, but would like to have a nicely stocked bar... we just never want to spend the $ on liquor when we could spend it on wine, so we always end up with something like 1 half-bottle of run, 2 bottles of Scotch and some half-drunk bottle of gin someone left at our house after a party. Only two of these 4 bottles are what I would consider a decent liquor.

You can stock a bar with about 10 bottles. Just pick one bottle of a decent brand of each liquor. Well for rum you may want both malibu and a dark rum (Coke mixer).

4
1 opened bottle of rum
1 opened bottle of vodka
1 opened bottle of coconut rum we brought back from the islands years ago
1 unopened bottle of Creme de menthe bought to bring to a party that we weren't able to go to

DH doesn't drink often and I prefer wine

Just counted. 42. Plus about 10 bottles of wine in the wine rack.

We have a drink or two every other night, I guess.
