UPDATE: I was watching a TV show today and they pulled out a bottle of "The Shackleton Whiskey" and the character made a joke: "the kind of whiskey a man would freeze to death for." And I almost choked! I looked it up and Shackleton had requested a specific malt whiskey for the expedition and that whiskey was later renamed in his honor.
