And have no idea what to do with it.

I won't go into details about why I ended up with it because that part isn't important but it was all completely legal. Kinda like a family member that legally gave you a rifle. It is all well known (and mostly high quality) names of unopened brands though none of it is particularly rare.  The thing is, even though I enjoy a little scotch or bourbon here and there, I'd need 2 lifetimes to drink it all. Or possibly a massive party with a bunch of spirited college kids?

I have the space to store it but to be honest why would I? I don't have a bar and even if I did I'd have to buy it through a distributor to keep in check with a liquor license so I can't even sell it to a bar owner no matter how pristine it is.

I am thinking my best route at this point is to make gifts to my friends from time to time or wait for the apocalypse because I know it will be one of the most tradeable assets there are then.

How would you dispense of it?

First off, congrats. I’d personally look for a friend who was more into it than you and sell the collection. I know, if the logistics worked, I’d take it off your hands in a few weeks when I’m in the MW

I would 'dispense' of it the old fashioned way, of course.

Ohio has a pretty big underground for selling booze.   Someone will send you a pm about it I am sure.   They used to do it on Facebook before they banned the practice.

My father passed in 2019 and I inherited a lifetime of alcohol from his years of international travel as a salesmen. Apparently boomers drank, smoked, and played cards because I had 100 bottles, 75 ash trays and hundreds of matchbooks, and dozens of NIB playing cards with my father's company logo.

I made gifts of them to my folk's friends. I found that the painter, gardener, and real estate agent took liquor in trade. I ended up shipping back a couple dozen bottles ... my daughter will deal with them when I pass.

If you believe there's going to be a day when you'll need stores of rice, beans and ammo, then you can probably imagine a time when booze would be worthwhile to have.

Barter time OP.  That's as good as cash, maybe better in about 6 months.

Looking at the list I don't see that one.

I would store away for bartering during the apocalypse.  While growing up my folks had a pretty substantial liquor collection. They rarely drank, not sure where they got so much. Pretty sure they never owned a bar. Anyhow, between my brother and myself we did our best to dispose of large amounts of it by the time we moved out. Haha. Good times

Kinda what I said but that day isn't today. I certainly don't mind sharing with my arfcom friends and so maybe I'll do some giveaways here.  Help me with some ideas?

Apparently not, (I haven't even heard of that one), like I said none of these are notably rare but are all known brands

My college roommate came into possession of a bottle of 1980s Jack Daniel's (mid 2010s). We loved the tax label and swear it tasted much better with the higher (42? 44?) % ABV.

If I were on the OH side of PA I'd love to buy some off you. I like bottom shelf bourbon.

If storing poses no problem, I would sit on it. It may come in handy as a barter item later.

Just north of Cbus.

To reiterate though, none of this isn't anything you couldn't find right on a local liquor store shelf.
