A rye whisky from the fantastic folks of Kyrö Distillery Company in Finland! Made with 100% malted wholegrain rye at the distillery in Isokyrö, Finland, this stuff boasts all the wonderful aromatic spiciness from the rye whiskeys you'd find in America, well-balanced by rounded notes of brown sugar and toasted oak. Seriously impressive stuff.
Honeyed apricot and sultana, baked earth spiciness, a hint of chocolate and coffee hiding in there too.
Rye bread with Seville orange marmalade, blueberry, vanilla, black pepper and another touch of dark chocolate.
The spiciness of the rye sticks around, balanced by toffee and quince.

Can’t say I like it. The tasting notes encourage me to try but I didn’t find much of what was said. To me there was a lingering sense of wet cardboard. The finish improved it a little. Tried it with ice which is very unusual for me but still not my cup of tea. **.
Really poor. Just came back from Finland with a half bottle of the oloroso finish (no pun intended) and it is almost undrinkable. A sense of wet flour, almost as if they have completely failed to distinguish between foreshots and the heart of the distillation - such a shame as their gin is really intersting, particularly the oak aged one, and that’s what encouraged me to try it
Beautiful Rye whisky, very different yet similar to Single Malt Scotch. Very refreshing, reminds me of snow & pine trees. Lots of floral notes.
Well rounded an interesting change from the American rye’s not as direct on the palate, will try another whiskey sample from “kyro” to get a baseline .
worth trying before you buy this one - its unusual to say the least - not for me but could rock your boat but not mine - sorry
