Kingsbarns Distillery, located in Fife, Scotland, was founded in 2014 by Douglas Clement, a former golf caddie who saw the need for a nearby distillery for visitors to the local golf courses. The distillery is housed in a beautifully restored 18th-century farm steading, offering a charming setting for its production facilities and visitor center. Kingsbarns specializes in crafting single malt Scotch whisky using locally sourced barley from Fife. The whisky is distilled in traditional copper pot stills and aged in high-quality casks, including ex-bourbon and shaved, toasted, and re-charred (STR) barriques. Their flagship product, the "Dream to Dram," is known for its smooth, fruity profile, with notes of tropical fruit, vanilla, and malt.
Distilled from Fife-grown barley, KINGSBARNS BALCOMIE is a fruity, light and balanced whisky bottled from 100% ex-Oloroso casks. KINGSBARNS BALCOMIE has been matured in American oak casks previously used for maturing Oloroso in the solera system. These casks were specifically chosen by Production Director Isabella Wemyss for their gentle oak flavours and rich sweetness to complement the fruity character of the Kingsbarns spirit. Sweetly complex and elegant, KINGSBARNS BALCOMIE is rich with baking spices, dried fruit and tropical character.
