First, i couldnt find a good place to post this so it ended up in single malt.

I just bought a new house, with a nice big room in the basement where im going to create a hideaway from the world to enjoy the good things in life... whisky, dart, ciggars and all in good company.

I got a few ideas how to do this but i bet a few of you in here already have a place like this, and maybe you are willing to share youre experience?

Or you are dreaming of a room whisky room and have great ideas to share!

thanks in advance
Daniel

Sounds very nice Soderd and an excellent plan for a basement.

I dont have said whisky lair, so to speak, more a cluttered room with it all in.

I am a traditionalist at heart so my dream place would be a bit like a mini gentlemans club style thing full of vintage whisky paraphanalia.

I think I would have to have all of my bottles out on display also, whereas now they are all tucked away in tubes in a cupboard!

Have fun and let us know how you get on.

Cheers..

Iâ€™m lucky to have my own space.. Decor is simple and white walls, shelving all round the room and old style leather chairs, dull lighting .. itâ€™s kind of a mix between old style and almost modern ðŸ˜‚ðŸ˜‚

Should be nice.

Can see what you want to achieve and why you chose this piece.

I work in the woods so love things made from trees. Nice project, along with the rest of your cave..

I've built a walk in wardrobe in my house to store it all in one of my spare rooms.
