Edradour distillery (Scottish Gaelic: ''Eadar Dhà Dhobhar'', "between two rivers") is a Highland single malt whisky distillery based in Pitlochry, Perthshire. Its owners claim it to be the smallest distillery in Scotland, but this title now belongs to Strathearn Distillery, also in Perthshire. It has been owned by the Signatory Vintage Scotch Whisky Company since 2002, and was previously owned by Pernod Ricard.〔(Edradour ), ''Whisky: Distilled'', accessed October 11, 2014.〕〔(Edradour Distillery ), ''Wormtub.com'', accessed October 11, 2014〕 Signatory, founded in 1988, is primarily an Independent bottler and is based in Pitlochry.〔(Signatory ), ''Whisky Distilleries'', accessed October 11, 2014.〕 Established in 1825, the distillery was traditionally run by three men, but now there are just two. Only eighteen casks are produced each week. They have a tour which costs £7.50 and currently includes two drams and a nosing glass. The wash still has a capacity of 4200 litres and the smaller spirit still 2200 litres.〔(Edradour on Whisky.com )〕 These stills are more than four times the size of the stills currently being used by Strathearn Distillery. A variety of whiskies are available from the distillery. Only the Edradour 10-year is chill-filtered, a process by which the esters and oils are removed, producing a cleaner look to the whisky, which when chilled or has ice added to it does not turn cloudy. There is, amongst others, a non-chill-filtered 12-year-old malt, some of which goes into the "House of Lords" and "Clan Campbell" blends. Also produced for two days in a week is a heavily-peated version of the Edradour called ''Ballechin''.〔(Ballechin Whiskies )〕 ==See also== * Whisky * Scotch whisky * List of whisky brands * List of distilleries in Scotland 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Edradour distillery」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
