Murder On Everest? Tainted Alcohol Blamed For Sherpa Poisonings And Death



I would seriously recommend ANY expedition leaders to please, Please, PLEASE go through the alcohol in your camp and make sure that Nepali Royal Stag Deluxe Whiskey is NOT in your stash of supplies and get the word out on this disheartening and truly awful situation before more deaths occur senselessly.

Very, very terrible. But it sounds more like negligent homicide from bad distillation, quality control, etc.

This is a serious warning about eating or drinking processed foods in the Third World. [They are risky enough here!]

Thanks for pointing this problem out,
