Whyte & Mackay’s new Shackleton Blended Malt Scotch Whisky aims to capture the spirit of the original whisky taken by British explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton on his 1907 Antarctic expedition. Using intact bottles recovered from under the ice, Master Blender Richard Paterson created Shackleton Blended Malt Scotch Whisky. This blend of Highland single malts yields a richer profile than traditional blended Scotch; it is robust with notes of vanilla, honey, ginger, licorice and a touch of smoke. 80 proof.
