It names the factory, not the drink and not the person它指的是工廠,不是酒,也不是釀酒的人。 The word sits in the same specialist-but-everyday world as bakery or brewery這個字跟bakery或brewery一樣,屬於「專業但日常」的字:ordinary if you are talking about how the drink is made在談酒怎麼做的時候很普通,a little precise if you are not不是的話就顯得有點講究。

People stretch it only a little大家頂多稍微延伸一點,to mean the whole business on that site用來指那個地方的整個事業:"the distillery closed in the 1980s"像那家蒸餾廠在1980年代倒閉了這種說法。 They do not use it for a wine farm or a beer plant不會拿它來說酒莊或啤酒廠。
