I would agree with Greg that the biggest insult you can give to the Scottish is to call them English. But I would disagree about the whisky. What you do with expensive drinks is your business (not that you’d be drinking any as a Mormon). I think there are some stereotypes about American holiday makers being loud, covered in contrasting tartans and calling anything Scottish Scotch. But I know that’s just the ones we notice, because they are loud. I hope you enjoy yourself; if you do come to visit, the majority of people here are extremely friendly and make up for the midges, rain and grumpy bus drivers!
