Är det någon som har den förteckningen, jag hade dem själv och hjälpte några forummedlemmar med årtal men efter en hårdiskkrasch så är det borta.
Jag har sökt på forumet men tydligen så la jag aldrig upp listan dumt nog.

Italienska årskoderna
Från Lionswhisky:
Q. Can you explain how to "read" the italian tax banderoles that we often see over the caps of Italian imported bottles?
A. We have done an extensive research on this matter as it helps determine the possible vintage year of distillation on old bottling where the vintage is not stated and we have found out the following to be true 9,5 times out of 10. The few times where we could not assign an era or vintage year according to the banderole we have found out by asking the old bottlers to explain this to us and we were told that many of these bottlers used to buy from the Italian State big quantities of banderoles and were allowed to use them well after the particular design of the banderole was out of print, so it is rarely found but possible to find a bottle with a discrepancy on the following, but it is generally true that:
PINK BANDEROLE WITH THREE STARS: Bottled before 1971.
PINK BANDEROLE WITH TWO STARS and 3/4 litter statement: Bottled after 1971 and before 1976
PINK BANDEROLE WITH TWO STARS and Litre 0,750 statement: Bottled after 1976 and before 1991
HALF PINK and HALF GREEN BANDEROLE with 0,700 Litre statement: Bottled after 1991
So if for example you have a Cardhu 12yo bottle with a three star banderole you can rather safely assume that it was distilled before 1959 and so on.
