Kyrö Distillery is located in Isokyrö, Finland, and was founded in 2012 by a group of five friends: Miika Lipiäinen, Mikko Koskinen, Kalle Valkonen, Miko Heinilä, and Jouni Ritola. The distillery emerged from a passion for rye and a desire to create distinctive Finnish spirits. Since its inception, Kyrö has gained recognition for its commitment to quality and innovation in whisky production, making it a notable player in the Finnish distilling landscape. Kyrö specializes in producing rye whisky, utilizing 100% malted rye, which is relatively rare in Europe. The distillation process is double-distilled, and the whisky is matured in new American white oak casks, contributing to its unique character. The flavour profile is marked by notes of malt, sweetness, and spices, with a finish that showcases the complexity of wheat and rye. Kyrö's expressions, such as Kyrö Malt Rye and Kyrö Wood Smoke Malt Rye, are crafted to highlight the distinctiveness of Finnish rye and have become notable within their portfolio. Visitors to the distillery can explore the production process and sample the range of whiskies offered, making it a worthwhile stop for enthusiasts.
