The
society takes its name from the two handled drinking bowl which is described in
the ancient Gaelic language of Scotland as a ‘cuach’ or quaich, a vessel long
associated with the drinking of Scotch whisky.
協會的名稱來自蘇格蘭古蓋爾語中被稱為「cuach」或「quaich」的一種附有兩只把手的飲用器皿，一直以來始終和蘇格蘭威士忌的飲酒文化息息相關。
我們再次恭賀葉媞媞小姐成為蘇格蘭雙耳小酒杯執持者協會的新成員!
