The Sexton 'The Walking Dead' Single Malt Irish Whiskey hails from the north coast of Ireland, crafted from 100% Irish malted barley and aged in former Oloroso sherry casks. This limited edition pays homage to the hit series The Walking Dead, with a collectable bottle adorned with imagery and quotes from fan-favorite characters like Michonne, Daryl, Rick, and Hershel. The textured blue-gray label, designed with slate elements reminiscent of Alexandria’s Safe Zone, makes this release both a drink and a keepsake.
On the palate, it offers bold notes of dried fruits, roasted nuts, and caramel, balanced with subtle spice and dark chocolate undertones. A vibrant sherry influence adds layers of sweetness, leading to a smooth, lingering finish with a touch of oak. The whiskey's approachable profile reflects The Sexton’s youthful style while delivering depth from its sherry cask aging.
With an ABV of 40%, this single malt is perfect for sipping neat or over ice. Its nuanced character also lends itself well to classic whiskey cocktails, such as an Old Fashioned or Manhattan, making it a versatile choice whether enjoyed alone or in a crafted drink.
