The WalkingDead straight bourbon whiskey review: A branded bourbon that significantly exceeds expectations. cocktails whiskey zombies WD
And you know what? Perhaps it was a matter of having those low expectations exceeded, but I am genuinely surprised by what a nice bourbon has been poured into this bottle. I can’t tell you for sure what distillery it hails from, but at $35 I can at least tell you that it represents a fair price and solid value, which is the last thing you expect to be able to say about a branded whiskey.
This is a sourced bourbon without an official age statement, although the “straight” designation tells us it’s at least two years old. It’s the result of a partnership between Diageo and Skybound Entertainment, bottled at a respectable 94 proof, marked with TV series-inspired shtick such as “safe-zone approved.
On the palate, most of these notes are replicated—peachy stone fruity and a combination of dark honey and caramel richness, with a dollop of vanilla buttercream, complemented by later-developing notes of pepper and grassiness. The oak character is young, but not in an unpleasant way—although this whiskey has no age statement beyond being labeled as “straight,” it comes off considerably older than 2 years of age to me, which is what you’d hope for with a $35 MSRP.
All in all, I am both surprised and impressed, especially with the plastic cap nature of this bottle.straight bourbon is significantly more characterful than it would need to be in order to market itself to the show’s fandom, and displays a nice profile of fruit and caramel, with fresh mint as a signature note.
