1941 Shipwrecked Whisky
Sailors didn't exactly comfort themselves in the arms of mermaids during long stints at sea. It was booze that got them through, in reality. This particular bottle of whisky comes from the British cargo ship the SS Politician that was grounded back in 1941. Most of the stash (264,000 bottles)…

It's shaping up to be the best Disney re-release since the Little Mermaid. Even if the movie sucks (it won't), the soundtrack and score are mind-blowing…
