Stocks of Shackleton's whisky are already in heavy demand - glad to hear it! Drink and taste what it was like around the 19th Century!
Any questions about the Shackleton South Pole whisky? Ask them at http://www.whyteandmackay.com/AgeChec... & I'll do my best to answer.
What a joy! what an honour! to taste a whisky that has been in the ice for 103 years! Remarkable you can drink it after all those years!
