Rye – The Spirit of Finland

Like so many brilliant Finnish ideas and half of its population, the concept for this all-rye distillery was conceived in a sauna. The founders were sipping on a rye whisky, and a relevant question arose: with rye thriving in abundance in the brutal Finnish climate and having been a culinary staple for centuries, why hadn’t anyone thought of turning it into spirits yet?

Somewhat surprisingly (given the amounts of rye consumed that night) the idea of starting their own distillery still felt right the next morning.

And so, on that hazy morning back in 2012, the Kyrö Distillery Company was born.

Kyrö's Choice: Vin Santo
"My favourites are the Kyrö's Choice products made in honour of Finnish Whisky Day. Unique flavours are my thing, and it's a great tradition and community idea to vote among colleagues on what goes into each bottle. The absolute standout of these products so far has been the 2022 whisky winner: Vin Santo."

Peat Smoke Whisky

"The choice is difficult, but I think my favourite is our Kyrö Peat Smoke Whisky. It's smooth but complex, comforting, yet exciting. Can easily identify with, and drinking it is an experience that sticks with you."

Dairy Cream Liquor

"As a hardcore ice cream lover, I must mention our Dairy Cream. Cream liqueur tastes great to me just chilled on its own, but especially homemade Dairy Cream ice cream topped with our Pärlans caramel sauce is truly heaven on earth."

Pink Gin

"Whilst I adore our original Kyrö Gin, I’ve been experimenting with Pink Gin, and it’s quickly become my favourite all-rounder, especially in the warmer months. In a cocktail, or with tonic alone, it just works."
