To get the html content but the scraper is now 403 blocked

403 - permuting over many possible scraper configs still didn't work :/
import cloudscraper
scraper = cloudscraper.create_scraper(debug = True) # returns a CloudScraper instance
print(cloudscraper.__version__)
print(scraper.get("https://www.masterofmalt.com/whiskies/springbank/hazelburn-sherry-8-year-old-whisky").status_code)result
