Sexton Tagged As Official Whiskey Of The Walking Dead
Proximo Spirits-owned Sexton Irish whiskey has become the official Irish whiskey of AMC network’s “The Walking Dead” with Sexton and AMC collaborating on episodes of the show’s final season, running through late 2022.
The collaboration will feature cocktail experiences, behind-the-scenes content and customized retail offerings.
For the cocktail experiences, Sexton has collaborated with Chicago-based Cocktail Courier to produce The Walking Dead Cocktail Kit, which features a recipe for a “Live for Today” cocktail [consisting of apéritif liqueur, grapefruit, blood orange and Sexton Single Malt Irish whiskey – emerging from Irish malted barley and aged four years in Oloroso sherry butts].
The Sexton Single Malt Irish Whiskey/Walking Dead Cocktail kit is being made available for $65 beginning on August 22, 2021 at Cocktail Courier’s website [cocktailcourier.com].
Additional elements of the collaboration include Sexton providing fans the ability to ‘unlock’ exclusive series content from Sexton whiskey bottles and – in 2022 – the release of a limited edition bottle commemorating the collaboration as well as more contests and recipes.
