  Hi Dominiek,

  Like you point out, I could/should have known that! However, to my own defense I should remark that I have never been that interested in the history / provenance  of different bottles...I am no collectable-collector, but a drinking fellow, as you very well know! ;-)
  But thanks for the enlightnement (?) anyway!  ;-)

  See, example nr. 2! Konstantin!

    Lurking for years, so please, Konstantin, be the host everyone wants you to be :-).

    Paul, the 40yo 105 was a sort of a hint. As I recall it was bottle to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the 105.

    Greetz,
    Dominiek

      There you have it...
      I don't even qualify for a 'near miss' here!  ;-)

      Thanks Luc,  I knew you'd know!
      See, this is the perfect example of the kind of knowledge available here!!
      I doubt very much you would get an correct answer, this fast, anywhere else!

        hi,

        The first Glenfarclas 105 was released in 1968.

        Best regards,

          Hey Peter, and everybody else...
          Yes I agree with the majority of the old warhorses on here: Let it remain
          the parent of all...even if it is rarely used.
          It is still a very valuable knowledge-base  to me, and even if we do not
          post so often, that does not mean it is forgotten.
          I still would rather ask a question that I have here, then anywhere
          else...thing is, not as many questions arise these days anymore. A direct
          consequence of the enthousiasm and knowledge once instilled with the help of
          this list! Let it live and prosper!

          To Peter,
          I am pretty sure the 105 was around before 1993...If memory serves me (a bit
          less then it used to!)  I first bought one in 1991...and I guess they were
          available from the mid-eighties onwards...
          Luc Timmermans 'mr. Glenfarclas' may know the exact period of introduction
          better, Luc??
