THERE are some thirsts that just aren’t quenched easily – Game of Throne fans’ pining for the show’s final season, for example. Worse yet: in August, all joy turned to ashes in our mouths when rumours (originating from a HuffPost interview on Emmy eligibility) divining a delayed release started circulating.
Fortunately, that debilitating fear of an extended wait can be laid to rest now. HBO personally swung the axe on those speculations with a single tweet earlier this week, indirectly confirming the show’s on track for an April 2019 premiere.
Every battle.
Every betrayal.
Every risk.
Every fight.
Every sacrifice.
Every death.

Now that warrants a bloody drink, we say. And – as if on cue – Johnnie Walker’s just dropped a special edition blend in Singapore that’ll serve well.

Well, we weren’t that sold. That is, until it was revealed that the bottle and its contents are to be served ice cold, when this happens:

If you’re stoked to have this at your Christmas party, they’re available from now to end November exclusively at 1855 The Bottle Shop – after which you can snag them online at RedMart or at most Cold Storage branches for S$75 a pop. The first 50 customers who make pre-orders will also be invited to upcoming White Walker parties (we’re finding out what that means, exactly. Stay tuned.)
(RELATED: Or go for something timeless such as the Masters’ Edition.)
Finally, if your pockets are feeling deep and you want to prep for the actual episodes in style, you could consider snagging this other Diageo complete collection that may or may not make it to Singapore. Check back for updates. UPDATE: They’ve made it! They’re available from 1855 The Bottle Shop stores or online at AsherBWS.
