What Makes Finnish Whisky Special?

Finnish whisky stands out from other world whiskies due to its unique combination of climate, ingredients, and innovative distillation methods:

• Cold Climate Aging: Finland’s cold climate slows the aging process, allowing whisky to mature slowly and develop complex, rich flavours over time. This results in a balanced profile, with a smoother finish compared to whiskies aged in warmer regions.
• 100% Finnish Rye: Many Finnish whiskies, such as those from Kyrö Distillery, use 100% Finnish rye, which thrives in the local environment. This gives the whisky a bold, peppery character, setting it apart from malt-dominant whiskies like Scotch.
• Birch Smoked Malt: Finnish distilleries also experiment with unique flavours like birch-smoked malt, a local technique that imparts a delicate, smoky aroma to the whisky, reflecting Finland's natural landscape.
• Sustainable Production: Finnish distilleries are also at the forefront of sustainable whisky production, using locally sourced ingredients and adopting eco-friendly methods to reduce their environmental footprint.

How Finnish Whisky Is Made

The process of making Finnish whisky is a blend of tradition and innovation, using locally sourced ingredients and advanced production techniques:

• Grain Selection: Finnish whisky often uses a mix of locally grown barley and rye. Rye thrives in Finland’s climate, adding a distinct spiciness to the whisky.
• Distillation: Finnish whiskies, like those from Teerenpeli, are distilled using traditional copper pot stills, which are handmade in Scotland. This allows for a clean, rich spirit with depth.
• Aging: Finnish whiskies are typically aged in a variety of casks, including sherry, bourbon, and port casks. These casks impart a rich flavour profile, ranging from sweet, fruity notes to bold spices.
• Climate Impact: Finland's cold climate slows down the aging process, allowing the whisky to develop complex flavours over time while maintaining a balance of spice and smoothness.
