This Tartan Spotlight is the Hunting MacLean of Duart. I really like this tartan and it's one of my favourites. The MacLean of Duart comes from the Isle of Mull, with the clan seat being Duart Castle. If you haven't visited, I can highly recomend it. #tartan #scotland #clan #history #bagpipes | Andrew Paton The Highland Bagpiper

About ten years ago, Lala was piping at New York Tartan Week and had the chance to meet the one and only @samheughan. Now, we’re chatting to him while rowing the Pacific Ocean - which is wild. Can’t wait to meet Sam again…maybe for a row back in Scotland or perhaps at @nyctartanweek next year? Listen to the full conversation wherever podcasts are available at Dinner With The Macleans. | The Maclean Brothers

Here’s a wee poem (and song) by Scottish icon Murdoch Maclean - this is his ode to the tartan. Massive thank you to @slanjkilts for getting me suited and booted this weekend If you’re looking for a kilt, whether bespoke or rented, there’s nowhere better to go than Slanj.
