    I hope they try to make a recreation of it. I'd love to try that!

    Well just how careless is that? Wandering around in all that cold and snow with not a lot to do and forgetting the booze under the floor boards!What were they thinking of?

    Actually,what an interesting discovery. I look forward to seeing, tasting even, what can be recreated by the whisky maker.

    I think it's a wonderful idea to try to recreate it as a special line.

    But what if the whisky was really nasty, and that's why they left it behind?

    Nasty whisky?!? None, exists my friend, just differing tastes and appreciation. They only had room for ten cases on the dog sled when leaving and had to leave the other three.

    I'm with Jock -- forgetfulness, and then poor planning! No wonder the expedition missed its mark
