WELLINGTON, New Zealand.  According to the Associated Press A crate of Scotch whisky that was trapped in Antarctic ice for a century was finally opened today. But the heritage dram won’t be tasted by whisky lovers because it’s being preserved for its historical significance.
 
The crate, recovered from the Antarctic hut of renowned explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton after it was found there in 2006, has been thawed very slowly in recent weeks at the Canterbury Museum in Christchurch on New Zealand’s South Island. 

Your comments might be even better if we could enjoy some of this together. This author has had 50 year old Scotch, but never anything this old.

We appreciate and look forward to your comments
