This movie is so much more than what I needed or expected. It is as educational as I hoped it would be. Education is everything from production and manufacturing and tasting and what do you observe and how to observe the whiskey. But the story is so fantastic. The characters are so fantastic. It's so aesthetic. If your desire is to see a great movie about whiskey this is one of those.Educational and heartwarming. I advise you have on hand an excellent single malt and an excellent source of cool water.

This is a loving doc built on interviews with serious but charming people in the scotch whiskey business. If this doesn't make you want to pour yourself a whiskey, I don't know what would.

I found this on Amazon streaming movies. I am one of those whisk(e)y lovers, I enjoy all types, including a good Scotch, even though Bourbons are my favorite. Some years back I had the pleasure of visiting Oban and the distillery there, it has a lasting impact on me. A running time of 90 minutes at first seemed too long but it is so well organized, covering every aspect in turn, and the stories are so well told that when it was over I found myself wishing it had been a bit longer. The film includes many in the industry of making and marketing Scotch whisky, but more focus is on Jim McEwan, a distiller and master blender, a 52-year industry veteran. He is a quite entertaining person, obviously quite skilled in the subject, and also seems like a very nice person. His is the fairy tale story, as a young boy walking past the Islay distillery he was often detained by looking through a window, as a willowy teen was given a summer job, and through hard work and dedication became one of the giants of the industry. Good documentary.

Jim McEwan is regarded by his peers as the best in the business. This film chronicles his professional life and cleary depicts his passion for Scotland and whisky. I am a lover of single malt Scotch, and always eager to learn more. Watching this film you can almost smell the barley and the peat. So, if you're a fan of Scotch, or Scotland, pour a wee dram and enjoy this little jewel.

Perhaps one of the best documentaries about a man, a product, a region, a country, and a ethos I've ever seen. So worth the watching with a wee dram in your hand!

Great overview of Islay Scotch, how it's made, how it is to be enjoyed and the legacy it has created for the Scots. Front and center is Jim McEwan, a master distiller and legend in the Scotch world. Full of emotion. A must watch for any lover of the golden elixir made in Scotland.

I so loves this documentary. It gives you a deep insight what it takes to make a good whiskey, whether its single malt or blended. The whole whiskey making process is as rich as its taste. Its the meticulous details which makes them truly to say its a scotland whiskey, its a scotch. I have always been a scotch whiskey person and I would always be. The best part I like about the statement " the whiskey is the most beautiful and sweet when its between 10 to 18 yrs of age" and also the fact about what makes a good dram is its not the taste of whiskey itself but an experience which let you enjoy the dram. Enjoy this beautiful documentary - all great whiskers and keep drinking !! Cheers !!

I recently read that documentaries are growing in popularity. The reason for that is evident in watching Andrew Peat's most excellent film, "Scotch: A Golden Dream, also referred to as "The Golden Dram." Please note that last word is "dram," not "dream." A dram is the quantity in which Scotch is served in Scotland (and likely elsewhere, to be sure.) But in watching this film, it becomes quite evident that having a sense of the dram is awfully important to Scots and the manner in which they consume their illustrious homegrown spirit. As a unit of measure it's rather technical, but with regard to the amount of Scotch whisky poured into a glass, (preferably designed specifically for this purpose) and adding just the right amount of spring water to it, the dram is quite important. Mr Peat's documentary sets out to tell the story of Scotch, and to a great extent the national character of Scots, and succeeds in both respects. We see the Scottish Highlands, the Isle of Islay, the rivers and streams, the peat bogs so necessary in providing fuel to the distilleries, the magnificent Highland cattle, the people. We meet many delightful and interesting Scots. They portray such a love of Scotch whisky and the culture in which it thrives. They are so sweet, so cultured, so charming, so funny, so not-about-getting-drunk-on booze, that even a teetotaler would want a dram to see what all the adulation is about. We learn how Scotch whisky is made, to be sure, but in such a skillful way that it never once feels like a lesson. You might be surprised to find out how important American oak casks (recycled from casking bourbon) are in creating the Scotch whisky's taste and fragrance. You'll hear tales that will have you laughing out loud. You're also likely to frown when you learn how heavily the UK government taxes its most treasured produce. But at the film's core, it's the story of Jim McEwan, who started in the business as a lad, an apprentice cooper, and retired 52 years on as a Master Distiller, ultimately responsible for every aspect of the whisky-maker's art. Mr Peat, through varied interviews, recognizes that any story good enough to be told is more about people than things, and such is the case in this consistently charming and interesting documentary. It never lags, whether filming people, distilling equipment, or the beautiful Scottish landscapes. We slowly but inexorably come to the conclusion that today's story of Scotch is one that could not have been told without telling the story of Jim McEwan. "Scotch: A Golden Dram" is so good you don't even need to be a Scotch drinker to enjoy it.
