December 5, 2019 - Johnnie Walker and HBO Licensing and Retail have collaborated to introduce two new Scotch whiskies, celebrating the enduring legacy of the critically acclaimed HBO series Game of Thrones.
The limited edition whiskies, inspired by House Stark of Winterfell and House Targaryen of Westeros, are now available in Kenya.
The two new whiskies follow the success of the White Walker by Johnnie Walker Limited Edition Scotch, launched in 2018.
Johnnie Walker A Song of Ice features single malts from Clynelish, one of Scotland's most northern distilleries, offering a crisp, clean taste reminiscent of the unforgiving force of ice.
The Johnnie Walker A Song of Fire is rich and spicy, boasting flavors of subtle smoke from the peated malts of the Caol Ila distillery, inspired by the dragons of House Targaryen.
“We were very proud to partner with Johnnie Walker again to bring more whiskies to the realm. The Game of Thrones audience continues to engage with the culture fostered around the series and look for special collectibles that let it live on,” said Jeff Peters, Vice President, Licensing & Retail at HBO.
Every bottle of A Song of Ice and A Song of Fire comes with a virtual direwolf or dragon, offering fans a unique AR experience.
