2. A Look at Some of the More Unique Scottish Gifts Available This Year When you think Scottish gifts, you usually imagine a bottle of whisky, maybe a kilt or a sporran. Or some Edinburgh rock, that peculiar sweet stuff that’s not quite chewy and not quite hard. http://www.tartantwist.com

A child, for instance, isn’t going to want a silk handbag.

Too often you can be swayed by your holiday, into buying someone something that you really want yourself – when what you’re really trying to do is to pick Scottish gifts that impart something about the country in a way that your recipient will appreciate. http://www.tartantwist.com

8. A Look at Some of the More Unique Scottish Gifts Available This Year Scotland is a colourful land, full of mysterious purples, bright greens and golds. The Scottish gifts you send can encapsulate those colours perfectly. For some people, whisky and haggis will be the ideal gift. Just make sure you get your haggis from the right place – a proper traditional haggis from a local butcher’s should do the trick. http://www.tartantwist.com

You’ll get identical single malts for much better prices at the distilleries, or in a normal whisky shop away from the tourist section of the country. And if you tour those distilleries, you’ll get an interesting afternoon out of your shopping trip as well. http://www.tartantwist.com
