Careful with that word 'any' Tim!
I'm thinking of Castillo, and not liking that thought...

Castillo...oh the college days.
Appleton White, Matusalem White, or Havana Club White. They're all good. Club is from Cuba so harder to get.
Pernod has grown on me. Try it (or the native Herbsaint) in a Sazerac Cocktail. Not quite Tiki, but lucious. Also, other Pernod drinks:
Death In The Afternoon
Red Witch

I'm enjoying a nice Pernod on the rocks out on my deck in the warm sunshine. I have a hard time understanding how it's gotten such a bad rap. Of course, I like that really salty Finnish licorice too, so maybe that explains my fondness for it.
There's a nice article over at The Spirit World on Pernod cocktails.

I agree, the Pernod is nice, on the rocks, with a bit o' water and sugar cube. I tend to like all of the anise/licorice liquors. The salty Finnish licorice however tastes like ammonia. Once the bank account recovers from the demerara impact of last week, I will experiment with the sazerac cocktail. So many good ideas and advice here. Almost time for cocktail hour. Thanks you all.

For what? Encouraging you to wipe out your bank account? Some friends we are...
But yup, a home bar is like a boat. You buy one and start pouring all your money into it.

Pretty funny, GatorRob! Friends,indeed! Interesting that you mention the fact that a bar is like a boat...This summer's tentative plan involves cutting up an old wooden dinghy (currently a black widow farm) for incorporation into the outdoor bar / BBQ pit. I will add a small table in between the seating planks and , voila!, ambiance via redneck ingenuity.
