What was the inspiration behind this unique tartan?

The deep navy mirrors the shadowed depths of Scottish lochs, while its olive shades reflect the heathered hills and moss-covered glens. Tones of amber pay tribute to the nation’s whisky, and the burgundy hues symbolise the richness of the soil and ancient peatlands.
