Kyrö Distillery Company is a Finnish rye distillery founded in a sauna in 2012.[2] Kyrö uses 100 per cent Finnish rye to produce rye gin and rye whisky.[3] In 2015, Kyrö Napue Gin, formerly known as Napue, won the Best Gin for Gin & Tonic category in the International Wine and Spirit competition.[4] In August 2020 Kyrö launched its rye whisky, Kyrö Malt.[5] To support health care workers during COVID-19, Kyrö started producing hand sanitizer. Through the sales of hand sanitizer, the company managed to avoid layoffs, and they have continued in production.[6]
