To celebrate the eighth and final season of Game of Thrones, Diageo joined forces and collaborated with HBO to release a limited edition collection of eight single malt Scotch whiskies inspired by each of the Houses of Westeros and the Night's Watch.
This Islay Single Malt from Lagavulin is the standard bearer for House Lannister, one of the richest and oldest dynasties in the Seven Kingdoms.
The whisky itself has been exclusively matured in 100% fresh ex-Bourbon casks, giving it a light golden colour.
Nose: The nose is characteristically Lagavulin with the sweet smoke exploding on the nose to provide a little more zesty, maritime brine thank other expressions.
Palate: The palate opens with sweet, smoky caramelised banana, burnt marshmallow and vanilla.
Finish: The palate subsides into a lightly dry menthol and salted caramel finish.
