Conor Mcgregor CONOR Mcgregor is building his own whiskey distillery, it has emerged.
The Dubliner is training hard for his crack at the UFC Lightweight belt in a grudge bout with bitter rival Khabib Nurmagomedov on October 6.
But in an Instagram post he revealed his side project.
Mcgregor said he is running the “finest” whiskey distillery in Ireland.
Mcgregor, 30, posted: “Working hard at my Whiskey distillery.
“It is in my opinion, the finest distillery we have on this great island.
“We have the purest soil, with the freshest Irish spring water and our golden Irish grain and malt is so golden, sun glasses are required to look directly at them.”
While acknowledging Jameson is the current top dog, he vowed his own brand will soon take over.
He said: “I respect Jameson, the current number 1.
“But I am coming in strong. I am coming in passionate. I am coming to take over. We are producing nothing but liquid gold here.”
