The final season of The Walking Dead is upon us, with just a few more episodes remaining in the hit AMC franchise, which first premiered over a decade ago. Now, fans of the zombie saga can finally get their hands on a new limited-edition single-malt Sexton x The Walking Dead whiskey. After it sold out online when it launched back in the spring, the popular whiskey has finally gotten restocked for fans to buy for the show’s finale this month. 

“Back in stock!” the brand posted on Twitter earlier this week. “Our limited edition bottle of The Walking Dead whiskey has returned from the dead for AMC’s epic final season.” The announcement arrived alongside a photo of the bottle and a note that read “last chance” on top of a blood-inspired background. 

Dubbed “the official whiskey of The Walking Dead,” the coveted spirits collaboration between the whiskey maker and the AMC series is available to order online on ReserveBar.com. The site says orders take between three and seven days to ship to your door, though that may vary depending on where you live. Some customers might even be able to get a bottle ordered the same day.

According to the online retailer, the new spirits collab, which was aged in sherry casks, features notes of everything from mellow honey malt and spices, to a finish of “pleasant gentle wood with honey sweetness fading slowly.” The collectible bottle comes with packaging that true fans of the series will appreciate, complete with several quotes on the bottle from characters in the show like Michonne, Daryl, Rick, and Hershel.

Along with the quotes, the bottle’s rustic-looking label motif also takes inspiration directly from the show and the Safe Zone’s wall — something that you’ll want to display on your bar cart well after the series (and the whiskey) wraps. Not a fan of drinking your whiskey neat? ReserveBar even put together a cocktail recipe called “The Walker Smash” you can make when you’re watching the show. (You can even make another cocktail, “The Final Showdown,” created by Ross Marquand who plays Aaron in the show.)
