Scotch: A Golden Dream

"Known as Scotch: The Golden Dram in the UK, and directed by American Andrew Peat, whose surname practically obligates a dad joke, this documentary is an amiable introduction to a timeless industry."

"Enjoy a sniff of this amiable doc about the ins and outs of the high-end Scottish whisky trade and you'll get hints of passion, tempered with wafts of fustiness."

"There's some good material here, about the importance of the cask and the peat that smokes the barley. But the film ultimately has nothing significant to say about this $6 billion global industry."

"Over the long haul, it's all enough to drive you to hit the gin bottle."

"Throw in some handy consumer advice along the lines of "whisky age isn't everything" and, like the alcohol itself, there's something for everyone in this documentary."
