I'd try it too. Hell, I had 20 year old gibsons at x-mas, and it was yummmmmmmmmmmmmy! 100 year old whisky should be 5x yummier!!!

Those old school Antarctic Explorers were hardcore. They make Bear Grylls look like Queen Elizabeth.

In this case, it's a blended whisky that was produced God knows when and has been aging in the bottle for ~100 years. It would probably be more valuable to connoisseurs if it had been cask-aging all this time, but I'm sure that between the history and rarity, it would fetch a similar price. I'm pleased that (if I read the article correctly) they're sending some of it back to Whyte & Mackay to be analyzed. Apparently the original recipe was lost at some point and this might give them the opportunity to rediscover it.

This has whiskey value and historic value so it will bring some coin...
