Kyrö Malt Oloroso is an inspirational example of the possibilities of different cask finishes. It is also a perfect example of how versatile rye is as a grain. The sweet sherry and Finnish rye are indeed a perfect match. The Oloroso sherry cask finish gives the whisky rich and mellow character.
Tasting Note: Delicious dried fruits, rich malty rye flavours, caramel, sweet baking and peppery spices all come through on the nose which reminds us of dark chocolate hobnobs. It's equally fascinating on the palate with raisins and nuts, honey, mocha, and fresh rye bread combining in a sweet-savoury symphony.
