Hi, I was just wondering if anyone knows of any figs that are commonly grown in Scotland, is it possible to grow figs there?

Pete I was thinking the same thing, but I'd rather it be Macallan, 21 year old preferably.

You may try Mackenwood or Macool in pots.

The Kennedys get royalties for every bottle of Scotch that comes into the US. Started by Joseph Kennedy, once was a buck a bottle, don't know what it is now.

Yes and as Celt mentioned the only one grown in Scotland that I am aware of is Castle Kennedy.
