Default Help with liquor for poker room

Hello....

Ok...here is the deal:

My wife gave me permission to turn our small basement into an office. With the theme "poker" in mind, I would like to have a shelf of "poker liquor" for display. I dont drink so it will be just for "decorations". After talking with some people here is what they have suggested so far:

- Crown Royal
- Jim Beam
- Jack Daniels (dont ask why)
- bottled beer from your local brewery

any more suggestions?

Why not give the alcohol to someone who will drink it, and put up a nice picture instead? Perhaps of a sunset?

If this is gonna be an office and not a poker room it sounds kinda weird. Even with a poker theme. I play poker and I don't drink either. I mean, I have wine for my female "guests", but it'd be a little strange to have a liquor display that no one would drink. Spend the dough on something else. Maybe a little neon?
How about this?
Maybe this?
Good Luck,
Russ

Office = odd & old school... but Home Office = unproductively cool [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Vodka's - Kettle One, Grey Goose or Vox
Gin's - Bombay Sapphire, Hendrick's
Let someone enjoy the liquor than you can fill with water for your display [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] Plus this is a good "poker liquor" as it easier to look like your drinking and not be [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

Maybe a poker room with an office theme would be better [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

My personal favorite "poker drinks" are:

Bailey's on the Rocks
Chivas Regal on the Rocks
Evan Williams on the Rocks
Johnnie Walker Black on the Pebbles
Crown Royal + Ginger (actually, a nice bottle for displaying)
Captain + Coke

Maybe I drink too much...

Whatever you decide (the guy who said single malt scotch was dead on!), I'd get a nice decanter, tray, and 2 nice glasses... maybe an ice bucket too. If you go with vodka and gin, maybe a mini-shaker and martini glasses. I also like Patron Anejo for the cool bottle and the golden color of liquid. But you might want to keep it simple if you're not going to drink. Less things for you to dust...
