Wow! If you have a home bar with all this you would rival a high end public bar. Now we need to talk about practicality. It really is not practical to stock all of these ingredients in your home bar, especially the perishable items. Unless you are getting ready for a big party or you constantly serve a lot of guests at your home we need to dial this back some.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Of the three phases, I have both 1 & 2 covered minus a couple of misc items I’ll never use. I have the Liquor part of phase 3 covered but not anything below that. This seems like an insane amount of gear but one that I will strive for once I’m a few months ahead of schedule on my car payments.<\/p>\n

I would easily have to put in another $3,000 dollars to attain\u00a0this\u00a0sort of coverage. Worth it?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"BarMixMaster: Phase 3 Liquor: Cognac, Canadian Whisky, Single Malt Scotch, Aged Rum, Anejo Tequila, Various Flavored Vodkas (Citron,…\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","apple_news_api_created_at":"","apple_news_api_id":"","apple_news_api_modified_at":"","apple_news_api_revision":"","apple_news_api_share_url":"","apple_news_cover_media_provider":"image","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_cover_video_id":0,"apple_news_cover_video_url":"","apple_news_cover_embedwebvideo_url":"","apple_news_is_hidden":"","apple_news_is_paid":"","apple_news_is_preview":"","apple_news_is_sponsored":"","apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":[],"apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_custom_appearance":"","csco_disable_excerpt_posts_layout":false,"csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"_jetpack_hide_featured_image":false,"_jetpack_featured_image_duplicate_dismissed":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2604","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-linked","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pb3IC4-G0","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":4077,"url":"https:\/\/adamchandler.me\/blog\/2014\/05\/04\/culinary-dinner-relae-copenhagen\/","url_meta":{"origin":2604,"position":0},"title":"Culinary: Dinner @ Relae – Copenhagen","author":"Adam Chandler","date":"May 4, 2014","format":false,"excerpt":"Last February, the dinner at Relae was memorable and I had to go back.
