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.

Rated: 2/5

Irish Times

A perfectly solid primer for a budding whisky novice hoping to progress to overbearing whisky bore. Fans of scenery might also appreciate a gander.

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

Feels like a promotional tool for Bruichladdich that has no reason to be a full-length feature.

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.

Rated: 3.5/5

A Golden Dream may sometimes feel like a promo film, or a very, very good DVD extra, but it really knows its audience.

I’m a scotch aficionado myself, so seeing some of the best to do it was a real treat. I wish they would have talked about more of the distillation process instead of the extensive interviewing. That was my favorite part of touring some of the distilleries. Worth a watch if you’re a scotch lover

An interesting introduction to the industry that leaves the viewer wanting a bit more depth. (3/5)

Great job at blending some basics to the distilling process, with history and fresh elements of the whisky industry. Any whisky doc that can make you feel poetic and romantic about experiences with whisky is worth the watch. This is atop the list.
