So I'm thinking about getting together a liqour cabinet to make decent drinks and that. I have some stuff that's just showed up over the years already, but I'm looking at this:

Here's my choices:
Woodford Reserve (bourbon) I'm not amazing at bourbon, and usually I'd drink Jack, but it's very well regarded, and Donna, who does know about whiskey likes this one best
Plymouth Gin - not the most premium, but I do like it
Absolut Vodka - again, not a premium vodka, but seeing as I won't be sipping it, it seems stupid to buy an expensive vodka to be drowned out by mixers
Kraken (spiced rum) a lot of people have been going nuts for this one. Time to find out what the fuss is about.
Appleton Estate VX (rum) - apparantly a superb rum for mixing
And then apart from those, a couple of standard vermouths (good for cooking!), mixers, and prosecco.
Anyone else got a decent liqour cabinet?
