When was Glenramskill Distillery constructed and why did it close?

OpenAI's Answer

The Glenramskill Distillery was probably constructed around 1828, although records are not definitive about the exact start date. The distillery went through various ownership changes, including being acquired by McMurchy, Ralston & Co in 1828, who were also owners of the Burnside Distillery source.

As for its closure, while precise reasons aren't detailed, it's part of a broader trend seen across many Campbeltown distilleries during the economic downturns of the early 20th century. This was often due to a combination of factors, including the impact of American prohibition, changing market demands, and economic hardships that affected whisky production and sales across Scotland.
