Just in time for its seventh season premiere on October 23, the AMC hit show The Walking Dead has partnered with Tabañero 100 percent All-Natural and Gluten Free Hot Sauce. With Limited Edition packaging, Tabañero is revamping two of its signature products and giving them a Walking Dead twist. In their recent partnership, AMC's The Walking Dead has licensed its name to Tabañero for its line of hot sauce and bloody mary products.

Last Christmas, Tabañero COO, Danny Vitelli, was searching for a present for his wife who is a The Walking Dead Super Fan and was unable to find the perfect gift. To his dismay, every store was sold out of all show branded products. Intent on getting his super fan wife a gift she would love, one night he was struck with the idea to combine two of her favorite things, The Walking Dead and Tabañero Hot Sauce, to make a limited edition item, company officials say.

"What started off as a fun idea, has finally become a reality with this partnership," says Vitelli.  "Our industry is fueled by hot sauce fanatics much like AMC's The Walking Dead is fueled by their fan base.  We're thrilled to be able to offer a line of quality products that are sure to bring bland food back to life while celebrating an iconic entertainment brand."

Available for pre-sale on Tabanero.com and officially in stock this November, Tabañero's Walking Dead Bloodiest Mary Mix is made with fresh pressed tomatoes. Paired with vodka, tequila, or savored on it's own, the Bloodiest Mary Mix offers a flavorful cocktail without added preservatives and artificial ingredients.

Along with the Bloodiest Mary Mix comes a Tri-Pack of Tabañero's flavorful hot sauces in Limited Edition The Walking Dead packaging. Made from a fiery blend of habanero peppers, carrots, onions, and other fresh ingredients, each of the sauces in the pack will add flavor to any dish. The Limited Edition The Walking Dead Tri-Pack will include 1 Original Bottle, 1 Extra Hot Bottle, and 1 Agave Sweet & Spicy Bottle. Each ranging in heat-level, use one, two, or all three hot sauces to bring fresh, new flavor to your food.
