I'll have the soup and ribs please Murray

The Glendronach will be a sherry drop I'd imagine just hope there is no sulphur.

Also I'd be very interested in the Benromach it's not a distillery I've had much from but recently the SMWS has had a few bottles quite reasonably priced. I've not tried them so I'm wondering what you make of this one. Your taste is normally very good so your opinion would be greatly received

The soup and Guinness ribs for me also , i hope the whiskies are good, i had the 1st release of the Glendronach cask strength and it was excellent and Benromach have some cracking single cask bottles hopefully it is a good one.

Enjoy your dinner and drams, i am sure they will all be good, i wonder if it will be the recently released GlenDronach Cask Strength Batch 3

and as Fergie says Benromach have some good stuff available.
