Ardross Distillery sits at the sleepy edge of a Highland hillscape, wind turbines turning on the shoulder of Ben Tharsuinn to the west, and the deer forest of the Kildermorie Estate spreading birch and rowan trees to the east. In the Middle Ages, this was Picts’ country, home to the tough, ancient tribes who held back the Romans. It’s still wildly beautiful today, but not quite wilderness – the surrounding peaks are gentle Grahams, not Munros, and Inverness is a short drive to the south.
阿德罗斯酿酒厂(Ardross Distillery)坐落在宁静的苏格兰高地山景边缘。在它的西边，本·塔尔苏恩山丘(Ben Tharsuinn)上的风力涡轮机在缓缓转动，东边是基尔德莫里(Kildermorie)庄园徘徊着鹿群的桦树和花楸树林。在中世纪，这里曾是顽强的古老部落皮克特人的家园，他们阻挡了罗马人的进攻。今天，这里仍然非常美丽，但已经不完全是荒野了——周围的山峰是温和的格雷厄姆峰，而不是门罗峰（苏格兰高地超过3000英尺的独立山峰被称为“门罗峰”，2000-2500英尺之间的叫做“格雷厄姆峰”）。向南开车不远就是苏格兰高地城市因佛奈斯(Inverness)。
