Helsinki Gin

The first new distillery in Helsinki in over 100 years is housed in the city's old slaughterhouse district, Teurastamo, right in its gastronomic hub. Three friends - Séamus Holohan, Kai Kilpinen, and Mikko Mykkänen - set out to make top-quality gin using local ingredients wherever possible.

About Helsinki Gin

Helsinki Distilling Company is the first distillery in Helsinki in over 100 years, located in the old slaughterhouse district Teurastamo in the city's gastronomic hub. For newcomers, it's a clean, classic London dry-style gin; for connoisseurs, one of the distilleries that revived Finnish distilling tradition in a modern, urban setting after a century-long pause.

History & Background

Helsinki Distilling Company was founded by three friends, Séamus Holohan, Kai Kilpinen, and Mikko Mykkänen, who set out together to create the first distillery in Helsinki in over a hundred years. They chose to locate the distillery in Teurastamo, the city's former slaughterhouse district, now transformed into a gastronomic hub. From the start, the goal has been top quality using ingredients that are as local as possible, and the distillery today also runs the cocktail bar Tislaamo as part of the experience.

Production & Style

Local Finnish ingredients are used where possible in a classic London Dry distillation that links British technique with Finnish sense of place.

Signature Style
