Diageo tasting

Got this bit of info from Martin Duffy. A similar Diageo tasting to the one we enjoyed at the society recently, with the added bonus of the presence of Colum Egan from Bushmills.
This could be a welcome night out for anyone who sadly didn't make our own society tasting, or indeed for anyone who would like to revisit the drams we tried that night.

And, rather impressively, they put a half-page ad in the Sunday Business Post magazine to promote it.
