Yeah, I Like Mine on Ice Too

Shackleton's Scotch Preserved in Antarctic Ice for 100 Years

dailymail.co.uk — They say whisky matures with age... but leaving it embedded in
the Antarctic ice for 100 years may be going a bit far. Two cases of MacKinlay's
Rare Old Whisky that Ernest Shackleton's team abandoned on their failed 1908
expedition to the South Pole have been uncovered intact and unopened.

Wouldn't you love to get ahold of one of those bottles?

That is an amazing find. It actually wouldn't have aged any; whisky really only ages in wood, plus the cold storage would have kept it very stable.
