Preparing For The Biggest Burns Night Ever
I've already covered one whisky for this year's historic Burns Night, the celebration of the birth of Scottish poet Robert Burns on January 25 and now Famous Grouse, which is the sponsor of the World Famous Burns Supper has come out with a Burns bottle for auction. To celebrate the 250th anniversary of Burns's birth they have created 250 bottles of 37-year-old Famous Grouse. You can only get your hands on it through charity auction. Those who are holding a Burns supper and wish to auction it off for charity can apply for one of the bottles which could raise upwards of £400 for charity.The World Famous Burns Supper website lets you register your supper and get a supper pack that includes invitations, placeholders, menu templates, the running order and a selection of Burns poetry. The goal is to establish a new World Record for the greatest number of Burns suppers ever held. Every supper registered will be flagged on an interactive world map. The Brothers of the Kisco 708 masonic hall event will be among the earliest of the season on Jan 10, 2009 at the masonic hall in Mt. Kisco which will have one of bottles of the The Famous Grouse, 37 year old blended malt on hand.
