It’s a strategic game, where each player represents a clan in the Scottish Highlands. So even if they’re not in their favorite country, at least they can pretend to be there with this game.
#3 Scottish gifts for whiskey lovers
The best gifts from Scotland for whiskey lovers are, of course, a bottle of Scotch.

Or get this funny one from Not on the High Street. It says: “Whits fur ye’ll no go by ye”.
Translated to understandable English, this saying means something like whatever will be, will be.
#13 Fun and interesting books about Scotland
Books are great Scottish-themed gifts for people who can’t be in Scotland right now. They can mentally transport themselves to the place they love the most.
- Clanlands: Whisky, Warfare, and a Scottish Adventure Like No Other. A book by two Outlander stars who traveled through Scotland.

#20 Scottish tablets
Do you need to find Scottish gifts for someone from Scotland who misses home?
Give them a flavor of home with these original Scottish tablets!
And in case you are wondering what Scottish tablets are, it’s a popular traditional Scottish treat or candy that is similar to fudge, but with a slightly crumbly and grainy texture. It is made from sugar, butter, condensed milk, and sometimes flavorings such as vanilla or whisky (I mean they’re Scottish after all).
#21 Scottish coloring book
A fun activity book for people who love Scotland and who would love to be able to speak like a true Scotchman!
#22 Scotland-themed notebook
Another one of the best Scotland-themed gifts for just about anyone is a notebook in tartan style!

#23 Nessie-related gifts
Whether you believe in the monster of Loch Ness or not, Nessie is a real legend in Scotland. So I had to include a Nessie-related gift!
Check out Etsy for a long list of Nessie gift ideas!
Personally, I liked this baby Nessie tea infuser, which makes a very good gift for Scotland and tea lovers!
#24 Scottish-themed keychain
This cute keychain with the Scottish national flower (a thistle) is a great small and personal gift for someone who loves Scotland!
#25 Harris tweed-inspired gifts
I’ll admit, I had to look up the difference between Harris Tweed and Tartan since to me it’s both a patterned type of fabric.
But Wikipedia taught me that, and please correct me if I’m wrong, Harris Tweed is handwoven tweed cloth by Scottish Islanders, whereas Tartan refers to the patterned cloth that’s typical of Scotland.
Anyway, I just thought that this was worth explaining before we would finish this list of Scottish gifts!
You can find Harris Tweed anything, scarves, gloves, jackets, hats, and bags. I quite liked the coin purse as Scottish gifts for her, but check out Amazon for more inspiration.
