This latest release, which was inspired by the finale of the HBO television series, is the ninth and final bottling in the Game of Thrones limited edition single malt Scotch whisky collection. It is said to pay tribute to the fate of Westeros, whose long-held Seven Kingdoms ultimately became six at the conclusion of the show’s climactic battle for the Iron Throne.

Commenting on the launch, Kavita Agarwal, Diageo Global Brand Director for Malts, said: “We saw an overwhelmingly positive response to the launch of the Game of Thrones Limited Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky Collection and as Game of Thrones fans continue to explore both the world of whisky and the world of Westeros, we are proud to introduce the final addition to the collection. Mortlach is one of our most sought-after super premium single malts, and seemed fitting as the perfect finale to complete the collection.”

Game of Thrones Six Kingdoms – Mortlach 15 Year Old, will be available later this month from specialist retailers, for a RRP of £120.00.
