Shackleton's Whiskey Stash Found In Antarctica

Sir Ernest Henry Shackleton was one of the most famous Antarctic explorers of all time. Via Tonic.com:
During his expedition to Antarctica aboard the Endurance, he and his crew abandoned their sinking ship to camp on the floating polar ice for two months. It is a heroic tale of survival, as no lives were lost before their rescue in 1916.

And now, something else has been found from Shackleton's adventures: five cases of 100-year old Scotch whiskey and two cases of equally aged brandy.
