Kyro Whisky

Finland's rye-based whisky adventure - started by a group of friends in an old dairy building in the village of Isokyrö. Rye was the ingredient they considered the very essence of their homeland, and it became the foundation for both their gin and whisky. Kyrö is proof that a small Finnish distillery can put grain on the world map.

About Kyrö

Kyrö Distillery Company was founded in 2014 by a group of friends in the small town of Isokyrö in western Finland, with 100% rye as the distillery's trademark. The distillery is known both for its gin, Napue, and its rye whisky, marketed under the name Kyrö Malt.

History & Background

The founders, nine friends with no prior distilling experience, decided to build the distillery in a disused dairy building in Isokyrö, a region historically known for rye cultivation. The untraditional choice of 100% malted rye as the raw material, a rare practice even among rye whiskies, has become the distillery's signature and earned it international recognition.

Production & Style

The whisky is distilled exclusively from malted rye, giving a spicy, powerful distillate matured in a mix of American and European oak casks.

Signature Style

Spicy, Rye-Forward, Powerful
Pepper, curry spice and a dry, grain-driven character show rye's full potential in a country not traditionally associated with whisky.
