First foot, haggis and “uisge beatha” (a Scottish Gaelic word combination later transformed into a term ‘whisky’) are Scottish must-haves that can be adopted by anyone who wants to add something new to the traditional New Year celebrations. With the Glenfiddich it will be easy to do.
Unlike the English, who traditionally consider the Catholic Christmas as the main holiday, the Scots as well as the Russians put the New Year on the first place. The New Year rituals are stunningly interesting and root deeply in the past. The Scots give presents to their family and friends on the first day of the new year (at Hogmanay), just like the Russians do. The Glenfiddich single malt whisky would be the perfect gift for the holiday.
