Raise a toast to our first Single Malt!
With the release of our new flagship Doocot, it is time to retire Dream to Dram. As our first release back in 2018, Dream to Dram has, and will always have, a special place in our story; the first chapter comes to a close and we are so excited to continue our journey and take you along with us.
While we continue onto the next page at Kingsbarns, we are dedicated to staying true to our Lowland spirit, independent nature and community led way of life. Dream to Dram epitomised this and it's masterful illustration of the Lowland region has elegantly provided the foundation for Kingsbarns and malts to come; Doocot does not deviate from this but instead evolves the taste and texture into something new: a creamier, butter pastry-like evolution.
After all, at it's base Doocot has been made using the same spirit and wood mixture as Dream to Dram but, like a fine wine or cheese, it has matured into a more rounded and complex expression.
We aren't ones to rest on our laurels here at Kingsbarns and so we will move forward - learning, adapting and striving for harmonic whisky tones wherever we turn. Dream to Dram was the start, and Doocot is far from the finish.
So join us as we toast a dram to Dream to Dram...
Introducing our newest single malt whisky, matured exclusively in ex-peated casks.
These casks impart a range of smoky flavours, which Isabella Wemyss expertly blends to ensure consistency and introduce a sweet, soft smoke.
Coaltown of Wemyss is a mining village situated near Wemyss Castle, the ancestral home of the Wemyss family, who have deep roots in Fife and a long-standing connection to whisky, Drawing inspiration from this rich heritage, we are delighted to introduce Coaltown to our core range of Kingsbarns Single Malts.
We pride ourselves on maintaining an expert balance between our light spirit style and the quality cask influence, ensuring that the casks compliment rather than overpower the whisky. This expression is a testament to our dedication to creating harmonious and nuanced Lowland whiskies.
Coaltown captures its heritage in its flavour profile, featuring a delicate sweet smoke note that compliments our classic fruity, slightly floral Lowland spirit. This release is perfect for newcomers to smoky whiskies and offers seasoned drinkers a complex and nuanced Lowland dram to explore.

Our Journey
In 2023, we launched Doocot, the next evolution of our Distillery's flagship whisky, showcasing how additional years of maturation have refined and enhanced our classic Lowland spirit style. Since then, Doocot has been honoured with the World Whisky Award gold for Lowland Single Malt, a testament to the expertise and craftsmanship that define every expression we create.
Building on this success, we are excited to introduce Kingsbarns Coaltown, designed to demonstrate our mastery in achieving a delicate balance of cask and spirit influence in our whiskies. Kingsbarns Coaltown will become the third expression in our core range, offering a truly unique Kingsbarns flavour experience. This new release represents our Lowland take on a smoky whisky, showcasing our innovative spirit and dedication to excellence.
