A Song of Ice and A Song of Fire are designed as a pair; you’re ideally supposed to sample these two spirits together to get a sense of how the House of Walker can blend its component whiskies into wildly different finished products. Each of the Game of Thrones Scotch whiskies has been paired with a particular house from the seven kingdoms in the television series, plus also the Night’s Watch guard, said Diageo. Six Kingdoms has been matured in first-fill, Sherry-seasoned casks and finished in used American oak, ex-Bourbon casks.

Talisker was a natural fit for House Greyjoy as this single malt is distilled in one of the most remote and rugged areas of Scotland, the Isle of Skye.
