April has rolled around again and with it our now annual trip to Dingle, Kerry and in particular, John Benny’s pub on Strand Street. Members who have travelled from Dublin in previous years will recall the warmest of welcomes which the society receives in the town and this was to the fore when we visited John Benny’s last year where the music, craic and of course the whiskey were in full flow. The event takes place the weekend after Easter this year and so may give members an opportunity to relax after the long weekend.

If previous year's events are anything to go by, then this is the start of a great weekend in Dingle; don't forget while you're there to pop in and visit our cask which is slowly maturing down in the Dingle Distillery and which will officially become whiskey on July 28. This will also be the inaugural tasting of the latest chapter to expand the membership of our society.
