This rye whisky is made from 100% malted rye. Kyrö is sold in 500ml bottles for about $68. The price shown is scaled up to an equivalent 750ml bottle. From the Kyrö website: A group of friends were having a sauna and drinking rye whisky, when they began to ponder why nobody was making rye whisky in Finland. Surprisingly, the idea of starting their own distillery still seemed like a good one the following morning and from there, the journey of Kyrö began. I tasted this whiskey at the Saratoga Whiskey Club Tasting # 66.
