The Domino Big Fat Quiz 

Our next Domino Big Fat Quiz is on September 3rd 

We know you’ll be blown away by the insane talents of Jacob and his band as they play some of your favorite pop songs in ways you’ve never heard, can you spot the Kanye West song played in the style of Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninoff? Will you recognise some rock bangers when they only sing every other word?

With a whole bunch of fun and creative rounds, this is a night you won't forget and is head and shoulders above what you think a music quiz could be.

This is not your average pub quiz, this is how The Domino does a quiz.

BREAK-EVEN

 

Tobermory 21
Island of Mull Single Malt Scotch 


This beautiful 21-year-old whisky is a new addition to the Tobermory range that was finished in ex-oloroso sherry casks.
These were chosen to create flavours reminiscent of foraged fruit found scattered across the distillery's charming home on the Isle of Mull.
Hazelnuts, aromatic spices and red berries creep through treacle on the nose, and you will find plenty of sweet notes reminiscent of marzipan, toffee and sultanas balanced by ginger on the palate.

Usual price per shot £24.50
Our Price per shot £5.50
