Full of sweet, fruity character, Doocot is light, intensely fruity, floral and complemented by a rich colour coming from the high quality bourbon casks it has matured in. Comprising of the same liquid as our first release Dream to Dram, but undisturbed for a longer oak maturation allowing complexity to develop while maintaining balance, we hope you find the core Kingsbarns spirit still remains firmly within.

Doocot- Bourbon and STR
Balcomie- Sherry Cask Matured
This Single Malt, from the family owned distillery in the Kingdom of Fife, has been distilled using Fife barley and matured in 100% ex-Oloroso American Oak Sherry Butts from Jerez, previously used for maturing Sherry. These casks were specifically chosen by Isabella Wemyss for their gentle oak flavours and sherry rich sweetness to compliment the fruity character of the Kingsbarns spirit. This allows for the perfect balance between the spirit and the wood.
