The auction story began in the Whiskygallery in Rendsburg. On Monday, 28th of April 1997 the domain WhiskyAuction.Com was registered.
The idea to build the first online Whisky Auction was developed before on a long car trip to a mini-bottle collector.Only a handful of auctions
were online in these internet starting years. Whole two years later the ebay precursor Alando was found in Germany. The first WhiskyAuction
ran for six complete months. Then we went on to two eight-weeks mini bottle auctions and as endpoint the monthly bottle auction.
With our first digital camera it took about three minutes to transfer a single picture through a serial cable. We auctioneered our first Black Bowmore
in 1999 for 8000 DM. On the 1st of January 2000 we solved the "Year 2000 Problem". The currency change from DM to Euro came in 2001.
To have more space, we moved into our new, bigger Warehouse at Fockbek in 2014. In 1997 a very good 1st fill Sherry Cask was very easy to get
for a bottlin. But today it is very difficult to find. So we selected this very special cask for our 25th anniversary.
