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 bottle pledging allegiance to House Greyjoy is embellished with a Lovecraftian deity of the Drowned God.
The whisky itself was created in the most rugged and remote area of Scotland, on the shores of the Isle of Skye, where one can hear the deep humming of the Kraken.
The maritime character of Talisker Select Reserve, makes this the perfect whisky to represent House Greyjoy!
Nose: The nose is Quintessentially Talisker with the signature notes of dry peppery smoke and dark chocolate.
Palate: On the palate the flavour explodes with salted caramel and chili flakes with an underlying peppery smoke.
Finish: The long, complex finish is layers of fruit cake and the dry spice of the pepper continues with a lasting hint of leather.
