The Olympics were great. But what if they were whiskies...
Welcome, whisky lovers and sports fans!
As we come back down from our Olympic high, we found ourselves imagining what the incredible athletes and storylines of Paris 2024 might look like in whisky form. (And, remember, we’re just having a bit of fun here—no need to take it too seriously!)
1. Effortlessly cool, Yusuf “The Turkish Shooter” Dikeç is Kilkerran.
2. With next-level meticulous precision, South Korean sharpshooter Kim Ye Ji is Waterford.
3. In a league of their own, pole vaulter Mondo Duplantis and gymnast Simone Biles are Springbank.
4. A collection of iconic all stars, the US Men’s Basketball Team is the Diageo Rare Malts Collection.
5. With bold and unconventional storytelling, B-Girl Raygun is The Lakes Distillery.
6. A single person who can do it all, heptathlete Nafissatou Thiam is Brachadair.
Cheers to all the athletes and whiskymakers out there. We think we can all agree that both create unforgettable moments for us to savour!
