Helsinki Rye Malt Whiskey from Helsinki Distilling Company is one of the distillery's signature releases and clearly demonstrates their focus on the character of rye. The whisky is made from Finnish malted rye and barley and has been aged in a combination of new American oak barrels and ex-bourbon barrels for at least four to five years, which gives it both depth and balance

The flavour profile is full-bodied but at the same time relatively smooth for a rye whisky. It offers a combination of sweetness and spice, where notes of vanilla, caramel and dark chocolate meet herbal and slightly spicy elements from the rye. The whole is well-balanced and shows a modern, Nordic style of whisky production.

The Helsinki Distilling is a relatively young distillery located in Helsinki, and has quickly established itself as an important player in the Nordic drinking culture. The company was founded in 2014 with the ambition to combine traditional craftsmanship with modern flavors and a clear local roots. By producing spirits in the middle of an urban environment, rather than in the countryside, the distillery has also become a popular destination for visitors.

The Helsinki Distilling Company is particularly known for its gin and whisky, where raw materials and flavors are often sourced from the Finnish countryside. Local herbs, berries and spices are used to create unique flavor profiles that reflect the character of the region. Their gin is often characterized by fresh, aromatic notes, while the whisky is developed with a focus on balance and depth.

In addition to production, the distillery also functions as a social meeting place. Adjacent to the facility is a bar and restaurant where guests can try the drinks in various forms, often in combination with Nordic-inspired food
