Hi Lex, all

No Problem, I will keep the Listerserver and the List Active.
Just wanted to know if there still interest on that list, at times of 
Twitter and others...

 So, The list will stay Online !

Cheers,
Konstantin

Konstantin, do you  think you’ve got enough ‘yes’ messages now to keep the list active, even  though usage is low? Especially for those who’ve been part of it for many  years, just knowing it’s there to get in touch with a bunch of old friends at  the click of a mouse is a good thing.

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??
