Hi everyone! My husband and I are visiting Inverness from Japan for a few days. It'll be my first time in both Scotland and the UK.

We're both a bit shy, and my husband doesn't speak English, so we're looking for friendly pubs, cafes for breakfast, and local restaurants. Nothing fancy.

What Scottish food would you be most proud to introduce to first time visitors? We'd love to try the local favorites.

Thanks in advance! We're really looking forward to visiting Inverness!

Hello everyone,

My husband and I are Japanese and will be visiting Scotland soon, mainly Inverness and Edinburgh.

In Japan, it's customary to bring back small souvenirs (omiyage) for coworkers after a trip. They're usually individually wrapped snacks or sweets that can be shared around the office.

I'd like to ask locals:

What Scottish food, sweets, biscuits, chocolates, tea, or other small souvenirs would you be proud to introduce to a typical Japanese office worker?

Ideally something easy to carry home, share with several people, and distinctly Scottish.

Arigato!

Edit: Thanks everyone for the suggestions! I’ve got a great shopping list now and can’t wait to visit Scotland. I really appreciate all the recommendations.
