Whisky on (Antarctic) ice


Conservators in Antarctica are toasting to a fascinating discovery: buried under the frozen Antarctic ground , they found two intact cases of Scotch whisky left behind a century ago by Sir Ernest Shackleton from a failed expedition in 1907. The cases of Charles Mackinlay & Co. whisky won't be retrieved until January, when the Antarctic Summer sun can melt the ice around them.
