The flagship single malt from Kingsbarns Distillery in the Lowlands, owned by the Wemyss family. The Dream to Dram single malt Scotch whisky was matured in first-fill ex-Bourbon casks from Heaven Hill Kentucky distillery and first-fill STR barriques (STR means shaved, toasted and re-charred), and was distilled in 2015. A fruity, floral expression, and an excellent introduction from Kingsbarns!
You can really smell those first-fill bourbon casks. There’s vanilla and crème brûlée plus lots of new make character, tropical fruit, and quite pronounced alcohol.
Smooth texture, sweet cereal notes, light and fruity, with some roasty coffee notes.
Banana bread, of all things.

An amazing whisky for one so young. Very smooth on first taste - not at all harsh like some youngsters that I have tasted in the past. Definite vanilla and fruit in the nose. Just a bit of spice on the palate. Cannot wait for future releases from Kingsbarn if this is any indication of the quality. Hard to pin this down as lowland whisky - reminds me of a speyside.
