    This doesn't relate directly to UKs or the like, but his statement does raise a question. My best kilt was made by Barb T. It wasn't made in Scotland, but I don't think I could get a better kilt. The definition of whisky may be enshrined in statute, but not being made in Scotland does not make a kilt not a kilt. If your friend really feels that only in Scotland can kilts be made, then he can buy a Scottish one. But he should consider kiltmakers like Barb T. and Kathy Lare as well.

    I personally agree with your friend, so don't be so hard on him.
