Whisky recovered after 100 years on ice

Five crates of whisky and brandy belonging to polar explorer Ernest Shackleton have been recovered after being buried for more than 100 years under the Antarctic ice, explorers said on yesterday.

The spirits were excavated from beneath Shackleton's Antarctic hut which was built in 1908.

It's not confirmed yet that there are intact bottles inside the crate, but if there is, what should they do with it? I get the feeling that auctioning some bottles for some charity would be just as good a use as keeping it in a museum.
