Ardiseer distillery

Speyside single malt Scotch whisky

Ardiseer distillery was situated in the village of Ardersier (its modern spelling), a few miles east of Inverness.

The village lies on a bay on the southern shore of the Moray Firth as it narrows towards Inverness. The Old Military Road runs along Ardersier’s edge, leading to the 18th century bastion of Fort George. 

Although pinpointing Ardiseer distillery’s location is difficult, it would logically have sat beside one of the two burns that converge just south of the village, before flowing into the firth.
