Product description
In 2018, Diageo, in collaboration with HBO Inc., the producer of "Game of Thrones", released a series of single malt whiskies dedicated to the characters of the series, the seven families of Westeros and the Night's Watch.
This edition turned out to be a hit on the market and a few months later Diageo joined forces with Skybound Entertainment to release “The Walking Dead” bourbon. This time the whiskey is dedicated to the TV series “The Walking Dead” based on the comic book of the same name. Its action takes place in a post-apocalyptic world, overrun by zombies. The bourbon used in this edition comes from an undisclosed distillery in Kentucky (we heard it was Heaven Hill) and was aged for four years.
