Flavour map courtesy Dieageo No site on Scotland would be complete without a discussion of Whisky, Scotland most famous export and product. My wife and I have only recently got into this area since our visit to Glencoe. We like the bottom left quadrant of this map. So far our favourites are, Royal Lochnagar, Dalwhinnie, Macallum Sherry and maybe Tomatin. We do not like Glenmorangie, Glenmore. Its a very difficult taste area and I guess over time one develops a taste for the richer ones. The only Borders distillery is GlenKinchie near Pencaitland off the A68. We have not visited yet.
A GUIDE TO THE SCOTTISH BORDERS - Four years ago we left Trinidad in the warm Caribbean, and migrated to Scotland to the Border area of Eildon, Walter Scott (of Ivanhoe and Rob Roy fame) lived here. Its a beautiful area, varying from soft rolling hills with hidden valleys, to rough moorland high up and bleak. Its quiet and calm here and we love it. This blog will be my diary of our adventures and our recommendations of places to visit and eat and explore.
