Kyrö Wood Smoke Malt Rye Whisky 70cl
Kyrö Wood Smoke Malt Rye Whisky
Decidedly smoky rye whisky from the Kyrö team in Finland! The rye used for this expression was smoked with alder wood, which they say can impart hints of smoked ham and campfire smoke. Blend that with the aromatic spiciness of rye and the creamy, vanilla-rich notes imparted by maturation in ex-bourbon, French oak, and new American white oak barrels, and you've got a spectacular spirit on your hands!
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Forest floor earthiness, joined by whiffs of Sichuan pepper and freshly baked rye bread with butter.
Palate
Vanilla, more pepper, orange oil, a slow build of dry smoke with a little meaty heft behind it.
Finish
A long finish, with the smoke taking the spotlight.
