Yogurt Scotch?Name: Chelsea Yogurt Scotch
 The Taste of Old Scotland! the candy heralds down the side of the tray inside the calico printed box. What Chelsea has to do with Scotland is beyond me. This is a candy blog, after all, not a geography one. I’m not sure I know what old Scotland tastes like. But these hard toffees are unlike any other toffee I’ve ever had. First, they’re opaque white and glossy when I unwrapped the piece, unlike the toasty cream color I’m used to. Putting it in my mouth I found it initially tart. Not in a citrus way, but in the way that yogurt is tart. It’s smooth and creamy, but with a little bite to it. I found them pleasant, but a little bland. I plan to finish the box, but it’s unlikely I’ll buy yogurt scotch again. However, there is another flavor that I saw at the market, regular butterscotch ... that sounds more my speed.

Ok, I just want to say that I really liked the Yogurt Scotch.
And I thing the scotch part has to do with the type of candy it is, less than the geography.

A perfect review. Excellent picture...Excellent write-up. Love it. I give it a 10 out of 10
I kind of thought that butterscotch was named that because it tasted like scotch that had been buttered and sweetened.
But I like all the answers on that site, too.
I actually really liked these ones, and they are more subtle than the butterscotch (which are VERY sweet) so I think I might actually like them more…
