Ardbeg was run by few proprietors from 1828 to the mid-19th century, Ardbeg’s whisky was in great demand by blenders due to the malts heavily peated character, but during seventy, time sales of blended whisky were declining, a surplus of maturing spirit prompted Ardbeg’s closure on March 25th 1981, a victim of the 1980’s ‘whisky loch’. Ardbeg reopened in 1989 but Ardbeg’s revival began in 1997, when the Ardbeg distillery and whisky stock was purchased by Glenmorangie, they sought to re-establish the Ardbeg brand from the existing maturing old whisky stock.
