For that too is myself. Thus Edinburgh, one of Europe's finest cities, possesses this dual personality. Along the elegant Princess Street, kilted young bagpipe musicians play next to outrageous punks. This street lined with attractive pubs is the venue for many an alcoholic marathon at the end of which no one is left standing. Even if you lose yourself in this street you will find the heart of Scotland.
British people consider whiskey part of their national character.
Among the top five British exports, whiskey serves as a backbone of both the economy and the community for the Scots, and they have never hesitated to risk their lives in the streets in protest of taxes levied against the spirit. At the distillery, different malts can be sampled. Whiskey is to be savoured in order to enjoy the smell and taste offered by small sips from a small glass. However much of an amateur you may be, after the third glass you will be on the way to decoding the mysteries of whiskey. You will leave with a smile on your face and a few hours' warm glow to carry you through the brisk Scottish air for a few hours.
