In steps Kyrö. Started by a group of friends, in perhaps the most Finnish way ever, after a sauna session, the distillery has unsurprisingly quickly taken off, making big waves in the world of malt.

Over a decade after that fateful sweat sesh, Kyrö's full range has finally started to mature. With the introduction of different variants and additions, the distillery's core whisky range was finalised in 2023. The whisky is distilled in pot stills and non-chill filtered, before being aged in in ex-bourbon & New American oak casks. Choosing the best from both American and Scottish whisky traditions, the Kyrö whisky has the complexity of Scotch Single Malt and the accessibility of American rye.
