TASTES LIKE
An initial taste of creme brulee, followed by honey-dipped granola bar and vibrant, zesty notes of thick-cut marmalade and green apples. And bran flakes! The finish is fresh and fruity, reminiscent of buttery apple turnovers and peach tarte tatin.

Enjoying a dram by yourself whilst relaxing after a long day? Sharing the bottle with a few friends? Whatever the occasion, stick THIS playlist one to make that dram taste that little bit better.

THIS MADE THE CUT BECAUSE
A distillery dreamt up by friends while in a sauna, Kyrö (Khy-rhu - phonetic pronunciation) crafts spirits that are a perfect interpretation of their Nordic landscape, and proudly only use Finnish Rye.
Post distillery tour (and yes, there's a sauna on site if you're staying), Kalle sat us down with 13 cask samples - and this 100% malted rye cask was our favourite.
A great sipper perhaps while also in a sauna!
OUR HALF + HEART RECOMMENDATION
With those peach tarte tatin notes this is a summer night whisky! Pair with a juicy beer and soak in those last rays of sun. We love it with a JUBEL Peach Lager to keep things peachy, or for a delicious high/low pairing, try We Can be Friends Sunburst IPA.
