Born from a shared idea in a Finnish sauna and driven by bold ambition, Kyrö is not just a whisky—it’s a statement. Founded by five friends with a deep love for rye and an even deeper love for doing things differently, Kyrö has redefined what Finnish whisky can be. From a repurposed dairy in the small town of Isokyrö, the distillery brings northern character, clarity, and confidence to every drop.

Kyrö’s signature lies in its use of 100% Finnish wholegrain rye—a grain known for its robust, spicy complexity and deep ties to the region’s agricultural heritage. Distilled in custom copper stills and aged in a mix of American and European oak, Kyrö Whisky is shaped by Finland’s intense seasons: dark, sub-zero winters and sun-soaked summer days that accelerate maturation and create unique depth.

The resulting whisky is bold, vibrant, and unmistakably Nordic. Expect a palate full of warm baking spices, rich rye bread, dried fruit, vanilla, and a balancing herbal edge. Whether enjoyed neat, over ice, or in a Nordic twist on a classic cocktail, Kyrö carries a sense of place with every sip—honest, dynamic, and slightly unconventional.

Kyrö’s visual identity embraces this spirit of playful defiance. Clean, bold typography, minimalist bottles, and modern Scandinavian design reflect the brand’s commitment to quality without pretence. Every detail—from packaging to product—is infused with the same energy that turned a late-night sauna conversation into one of Europe’s most respected craft distilleries.

Innovation is central to Kyrö’s DNA. The brand has expanded beyond whisky to produce award-winning gins and cream liqueurs, but its core remains grounded in rye. Every expression is crafted with transparency and traceability, using locally sourced grain and sustainable practices that reflect a long-term vision of responsible growth.

What sets Kyrö apart isn’t just where it’s from—it’s how it’s made, why it’s made, and the people who make it. It’s whisky that doesn’t try to imitate tradition but instead builds a new one, born of curiosity, collaboration, and a distinctly Finnish mindset.

For those who seek something bold but grounded, new but authentic, Kyrö offers more than great whisky—it offers a sense of origin, of humour, and of doing things the right way, even if it’s the hard way.
