Johnnie Walker A Song of Ice features single malts from Clynelish, one of Scotland’s most northern distilleries, and exudes a crisp, clean taste like the unforgiving force of ice that shapes mountains and stops rivers. The new blend has an ABV of 40.2% and the bottle design evokes an icy setting with frosted blue and gray colors inspired by the North, known for its cold winters and frozen landscapes. Johnnie Walker A Song of Fire is rich and spicy, boasting flavors of subtle smoke from the peated malts of the Caol Ila distillery with an ABV of 40.8%. Inspired by the dragons of House Targaryen, feared for their fire breathing, the bottle design evokes a fiery setting with deep-red colors. Appearance: Light amber or perhaps a pale yellow.

The bottle is frosted and features a picture of a dire wolf. This whisky is supposed to evoke the idea of being around dragons by its use of Caol Ila in the blend. A workhorse distillery that makes up the main peaty component of all standard Johnny Walker blends, but seems to be all but absent from this blend. I was hoping for a massive peat-forward blend that poured like a bonfire, but as you’ll see below, it was barely a match strike. Hey, remember Game of Thrones? Johnnie Walker does, and they’re making sure the epic TV series stays alive with the third installment of whisky inspired by the show. Much like Winterfell’s positioning in Westeros, Song of Ice is crafted using whiskies from Clynelish, one of Scotland’s most northern and iconic distilleries, lending a fresher crisp to the Scotch.

Today will be a double header, with two of the Game of Thrones editions of Johnnie Walker: Song of Ice and White Walker. I didn’t get a bottle of Song of Fire, but I’d assume it’s just a little smokier than these two. Johnnie Walker Song of Ice is a blended Scotch whisky inspired by these wild dwellers of the North.

For some reason, this stuff is bottled at 40.2% ABV. I’m sure there’s some marketing reason tied to that number, but it can’t possibly affect the flavor of the whisky so I’m not going to bother to look it up.

Johnnie Walker is proud to unveil two new limited edition whiskies in celebration of the epic final season of Game of Thrones. With Water: Water seems to mute the aroma, initially, so I let it sit for a few minutes. The aroma becomes crisper – lime seltzer? – but no other new notes, and the whole is still muted. The palate seems thinner, but the finish is livelier, again with a lime or lime-peel note. Water is not necessary here.And here we are with A Song of Ice and A Song of Fire, whiskies representative of the Houses Stark and Targaryen. I thought cool, why not? Albeit the fact that the series ended a while ago, chances are that these two will sell to adoring fans, especially as a limited release.

Nose: Pretty standard Johnnie-style grain whisky nose, with hay, light honey, and a little too much nail-polish remover to ignore. A rest in the glass brings out a slight coconut note, and a round, waxy note of something like Macadamia nuts, which has to be from the Clynelish. These pleasant changes are very faint, however, the dominant note is still paint thinner. Song of Ice is a slight tweak to the generic Johnnie Walker formula. Since the goal was to play off of the success of HBO’s Game of Thrones series, I doubt the flavor of the whisky had much to do with it. Rumor suggests this version has a little less peated scotch and a little more Clynelish. For an excellent rundown on the contents of various Johnnie blends, see Driscoll’s blog.
