Scotland may not be known for its contributions to technology, but as far as drinking gadgets go, this Musical Bagpipe Whiskey Pourer is world class. When placed inside a bottle, the bagpipes will play ‘Scotland the Brave’ as you pour. They even threw in a shot glass as a bonus.

    “Scotland may not be known for its contributions to technology”
    WTF? Scottish engineers were widely known around the world in the early part of the industrial revolution. Many of the things we think of as being invented in America (the steam boat, for example) were invented by Scots who had immigrated. <a href=”http://www.magicdragon.com/Wallace/thingscot.html”.Here is a list of Scottish inventions.
    adhesive postage stamps
    anaesthetics
    artificial diamonds
    reaping machine
    Bank of England
    penicillin
    fax machines
    first cloned mammal
    flailing machines
    golf
    hypodermic syringes
    Kelvin scale (Lord Kelvin, the founding father of modern physics, was Scottish)
    percussion powder
    marmalade
    mackintosh raincoats
    macadamized roads
    microwave ovens
    colloid chemistry
    breech-loading rifle
    tubular steel

    Yes, my ancestors were from Scotland, why do you ask?
