Ben Nevis Distillery
It�s Burns Night tonight (Thursday), when millions of Scots at home and abroad will toast Scotland�s national bard on his birthday, January 25, with a nip of whisky and wee splash of water, from any of the many Burns branded malts and blends ooding the market.
The Burns supper brings people together across the world, but few may realise a bigger unity in the words they speak. When dining in Europe and even beyond, have you noticed some words sound similar in different languages? Take the liquid in your glass, called in English water.
