Après with Purpose: Audécious at the 2025 Invictus Games

When the Invictus Games landed in Whistler for its 10th anniversary for its first-ever winter games, bringing together hundreds of service members from around the world, Audécious was invited not just to pour vodka—but to pour into something far more meaningful.

In a feature by Mountain Life Media, Audécious hosted an intimate après event where former UK serviceman and Invictus Games advocate David Wiseman reflected on resilience, recovery, and the power of community. With our award-winning organic vodka in hand, the moment became a shared reminder of what Audécious stands for.

Born in Whistler, Audécious isn’t just a spirit—it’s a mission to challenge an industry that quietly relies on pesticides and harmful agricultural practices, and to offer a clean, conscious alternative. We’re here to make spirits better—for people, for the planet, and for the culture around them.

This wasn’t just après. It was Audécious Après.

ROB KHARAZMI
Head Bartender @ Four Seasons Whistler
Right off the bat, smells super clean on the nose. Really nice, really clean. Subtle sweetness at the end there. No burn, no burn - that’s very nice. Beautiful. Really really elevated - very clean
ANDY HODGSON

I think it’s super smooth, it doesn’t make me cringe. It feels good on the soul
Maly Blomberg

Definitely something I can sip on, without feeling the burn after sipping it. Just like that - even without chilling it. This is delicious...I’m gonna take this with me!
JORY DAVIES
Head Bartender @ Reel Room / Eucalyptus
It’s surprisingly smooth and has a nice sweetness. Unlike most vodkas, it doesn’t burn or have a strong bite, which I appreciate. I’m impressed by its flavor and excited to work with it—it’s definitely better than any vodka I can remember.
Elizabeth Kalles
Bartender @ Jungle Room
This is super smooth I can see myself and my friends finishing a bottle. Now knowing what Audécious is capable of, it opens up a lot more cocktail ideas that I only dreamt of before...this is amazing!
ADAM LAU
BAR MANAGER, ARGO @ FOUR SEASONS HK
So smooth already and no burn while drinking it neat but the massive difference is when the vodka is used in our cocktails - there is no comparison, very interesting
MICHAEL CASTELLANO
BARTENDER & HEAD OF MARKETING, HEY LOVE
Definitely has an actual mouth feel, sticks to your tongue. Has a texture I’ve never had in vodka before. Normally vodka falls off your tongue and has no taste. This has a body to it and sticks onto your tongue. Normally I would never take a vodka shot but this one I would definitely taste.
AVI KAPIL
Chief Solutions Officer
That’s very smooth - I can drink it like whisky. Normally I don’t drink vodka either so this is perfect. Definitely going to try and find more of these.
