Kyrö // Finland
An abandoned cheese factory in Isokyrö, Finland has been home to the rye-obsessed Kyrö Distillery Company since 2014. While they waited for their rye whiskey to mature, they keep the stills busy producing new make spirit and rye-based gin like this one. Kyrö Gin (formerly known as Napue Gin) is made from rye grain and distilled with freshly-picked and locally sourced seabuckthorn, wild cranberries, birch leaves, and meadowsweet.
The remaining 12 botanicals are undisclosed. It is bottled at 46.3% ABV.

Tasting Notes
"The aroma of coriander comes through along with bright citrus tones and fresh green grass. There's a pleasant savoriness to it all. On tasting, the base spirit is lean and dry with juniper present, but not overpowering. The finish shows gentle floral notes and a peppery finish. A zippy gin and an all-around cocktail use. Start with a gin & tonic."
