No that is not a miniature bottle of whisky, these books are HUGE - commonly called Elephant Folios.
They are every law that has been passed by the Scottish Parliaments from 1124 to 1707 forming the basis for modern Scots Law and this believed to be the only full set available for sale.
Individual volumes can sell for £200 - £600 each elsewhere.
Laws concerning Golf are in there -
A 1457 Act of the Scots Parliament under King James II that prohibited the game to encourage archery. This ban was reiterated by the Scots Parliament under Kings James III (1470) and James IV (1491), but was lifted in 1502 with the Treaty of Glasgow with England
