Better colours for a beer tartan would be yellow/gold for the malted barley, green for hops, blue for the water, brown for the yeast.

I am referring to the cords and fringe that was mentioned by the OP.
The information was given to me by a member of the pipe band.
The Perthshire tartan is stunning. I would love to know your...

So Pete kindly got back to me.
The red represents the red hackle of the 42nd Highlanders (Black Watch).
The red cords have very recently been replaced with ones that match their ties which are...

They are good bunch that band. I used see a few them when I worked at the Inveralmond Brewery.
Also, the former Head Brewer at Inveralmond (now at Harviestoun) is a drummer for the Atholl...

I knew these lads when they first started out. They used to drop off casks to our brewery for beer festivals. They were not interested in engaging with others in the trade who had been around for a...

You probably know this but Scotland is the largest producer of gin in the World with nearly three quarters of all gin produced coming from Scotland.

Just a hypothesis, but is it possible that a London tailor made the jacket from a highland pattern? Learning their trade down south they may have used different techniques or just different emphases...

It is an easy drive. I personally would drive over the bridge, it would save you some time.

Angus was a Mormeardom since at least the 900s BCE.

I am originally from Carnoustie and still love Angus. It is a great place to grow up and a great place to come back to.

I love 'loud' tartans (as long as they are not unnatural colours such as neon pink, fluro orange, etc). A bright coloured kilt such MacLeod looks fantastic especially coupled with tweed or barathea

Since most people move around a bit you'll tend to find that most Scots can lay claim to a few tartans in their lineage. It is worth looking at regional tartans as well. As mentioned above, many...

Your outfit is certainly more country and wouldn't be unusual at the shows. But is that a bad thing?

Columba Cream isn't one that I am familiar with but, if it is a cream liqueur akin to Baileys, it is rather easy to make yourself. There are plenty of online recipes and your local home-brew store...

I wouldn't worry about finders fees. Contact them directly as many distilleries already offer private/alternative/bespoke labelling services. Edradour, for example, certainly did when I was buying...

There is a variation mentioned in On The Road by Jack Kerouac - Wine-Spodiodi. Two parts Port, one part Whisky.

A couple of suggestions that may work - wear the sporran around the house. The more you wear it the quicker it will get worn in.
Alternatively, try rubbing the hair between your hands as if you...

There were quite a few festival goers kilted this year. Is any of the Rabble attending?
I'll be there for both sessions today. You can find me in my MacDonald of Clanranald kilt pouring at the...

As long as there has been people on the British Isles there has been a to-ing and fro-ing of people. I think it is much more nuanced than Irish invaded Scotland or visa versa. Perhaps we are too...

My wife used to work at the National Museum. One of the curators there really opened my eyes to the Romans in Scotland. We tend to think of it just as the Antonine and Hadrian Walls but the...

I consider myself Scottish first and foremost, even though now living in Colorado for 2 years.
I do love my adopted home town and feel a deep connection to both.
As a people, and I know this...
