Ballantine’s Scotch whisky is collaborating with the video game series Borderlands to launch a limited edition bottle of whisky.

In their first-ever video game collaboration, Ballantine’s will have a non-player character (NPC) – specifically, the bar mistress, Mad Moxxi – who will also hold the role of chief galactic expansion officer (CGEO).

The Ballantine’s x Moxxi’s Bar Limited Edition will contain Ballantine’s Finest, and Moxxi will appear in brand competitions with fans on LinkedIn and Twitter. Competition winners will receive a bottle, as well as access to exclusive Borderlands 3 content. Moxxi is also set to make in-person appearances at bars that do not feature in the game’s fictional universe.

Cù Bòcan has released two limited edition Highland single malt whiskies as part of their Creation series – appropriately dubbed Creation #3 and Creation #4 – both of which were distilled at the Tomatin Distillery.

Cù Bòcan Creation #3 was matured in Moroccan Cabernet Sauvignon as well as North American rye casks, bottled at 46% alcohol by volume [92 proof] and is said to contain notes of black fig, citrus, Moroccan souk, rose and strawberry.

Cù Bòcan Creation #4 was matured in both cognac and Tawny port casks – as a tribute to the Antrim Cocktail [made with cognac and port] – then bottled at 46% alcohol by volume [92 proof] and is said to contain notes of cinnamon, peach and plum.

Only 4,200 bottles of both Cù Bòcan Creation #3 and Creation #4 are being made available for $80 per 700ml bottle.
