Ardross distillery is a Scotch whisky and Gin distillery in Ardross, Highland, Scotland.
History
The distillery was begun by Andrew Rankin, a Master whisky blender at Ardross mains farm in December 2015. The entire distillery project, including a bonded warehouse outside Glasgow cost approximately £50 million. Planning approval was granted for the distillery in February 2017. Building work began in November 2017 across a 50-acre site. The building work included restoration of the existing 19th century buildings as well as building new distillation facilities. The architect, NoRR commissioned a photographic survey of the derelict buildings prior to their restoration and conversion as a distillery.
In December 2021, new make spirit from the distillery became the first-ever new make spirit to be auctioned in cask at Christie's auction house.
Production
Water for the whisky comes from nearby Loch Dubh.
Whisky production commenced in late 2019. The distillery also began producing a gin 'Theodore' with a Picts theme in Autumn 2019.
