From the book "A Feast of Scotland" by Janet Warren. Prep time includes chill time.

Steps:
- Pound the cheese to a thick cream. Add drop by drop as much whisky as it will 'drink' to make a firm cream.
- Pack into small earthenware pots or ramekins and chill in the fridge for 3 to 4 hours.
- Serve the pâté with hot buttered toast, water crackers, or oatcakes, and seasonal fresh fruits or vegetables. Also a great appetizer filling, and a delicious topping for steak!
