According to Wikipedia, In Scotland – 300 drams of the Famous Grouse are drunk every second. In the case above, we had a brisk drink after doing the ice-trek on the Perito Moreno Glacier in Patagonia, Argentina…
As we rounded the last ice-corner on the ice-trek, we found a wooden table set up, with a number of cases of Famous Grouse Scotch whisky. Need ice? No problem, turn around and hack a chunk off the glacier and dump it in the ice-bowl. There’s even an ice-clear mini river of glacier water flowing through the ice in the background to wash the glasses.
Taken with a 45mm tilt shift lens which I focussed on the Famous Grouse bottle label. The ‘Est. 1800 Perth’ moulding in the bottle is also visible above the label. In the background, other hikers are also chilling after the ice-trek, still with their crampons on.
I have to admit it was the freshest ice I’ve ever had in a Scotch!
