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.
阿德羅斯釀酒廠(Ardross Distillery)坐落在寧靜的蘇格蘭高地山景邊緣。在它的西邊，本·塔爾蘇恩山丘(Ben Tharsuinn)上的風(fēng)力渦輪機在緩緩轉(zhuǎn)動，東邊是基爾德莫里(Kildermorie)莊園徘徊著鹿群的樺樹和花楸樹林。在中世紀，這里曾是頑強的古老部落皮克特人的家園，他們阻擋了羅馬人的進攻。今天，這里仍然非常美麗，但已經(jīng)不完全是荒野了——周圍的山峰是溫和的格雷厄姆峰，而不是門羅峰（蘇格蘭高地超過3000英尺的獨立山峰被稱為“門羅峰”，2000-2500英尺之間的叫做“格雷厄姆峰”）。向南開車不遠就是蘇格蘭高地城市因佛奈斯(Inverness)。
