Description
With the release of their new album “Invincible Shield” on 8 March 2024, the legendary metal band Judas Priest once again made music history. Just one week after its release, the album catapulted to the top of the international charts – and took the British cult band to Platzer in the German album charts for the first time in over 55 years of the band’s history. A milestone for the metal world – and a reason to celebrate for fans of hard sounds.
But Judas Priest is not only causing a sensation musically: together with the renowned St. Kilian Distillers, the band is now launching the fifth edition of its exclusive heavy metal whisky on the market. The Judas Priest INVINCIBLE SHIELD single malt whisky is a powerful homage to the album of the same name and boasts a stylish presentation that reflects the iconic album artwork in a metallic look on the label.
Made from 100% malted barley, the whisky is matured in selected casks that give it depth, structure and a powerful character. Uncoloured, non-chill-filtered and bottled at 47% vol., this single malt is as pure and uncompromising as the sound of its namesake. The limited edition of only 7,850 bottles worldwide makes it a sought-after collector’s item for music lovers, metalheads and whisky connoisseurs alike.
