Quaich
Derived from the Gaelic “cuach” meaning cup, the Quaich was a simple drinking vessel traditionally made of wood. Uniquely Scottish and designed to share with two handles or ‘lugs’, it was used across the Scottish Highlands as a sign of friendship to provide a welcoming whisky to visitors or guests.
Since the 16th century the humble quaich has featured in wedding ceremonies where the bride and groom share a drink from the same cup symbolising both trust and intimacy. Building on the nature of sharing, quaichs are often passed around the wedding party allowing each person to take a sip of its contents as a symbol of sharing in the couple’s love and happiness.
All our quaichs are handcrafted and can be personalised with engraved or inlaid designs before being finished with natural oils and wax.
