This consideration comes in light of Guinness's rising popularity among younger consumers in the UK and its strong presence in Ireland. Additionally, Diageo is assessing its investment in LVMH's Moet Hennessy drinks unit, which may lead to either deepening its stake or potentially exiting the investment altogether.
