From the distiller:

Crafting from the forests of Finland, our distilling division continues in the footsteps that date back to
1932 and the end of prohibition. Our secretive bootleggers have stepped out of the shadowy woods and
developed into the modern day distillers, showing the world why Finns are the happiest people.
The heart of the process derives from the deepest forest and shores of thousand lakes.
We combine our passion with the finest ingredients and purest water of Finland.

Pyynikin Recycled Citrus Gin is a crafted collaboration with Tiima Cocktail Bar in Tampere.
They have reused Tiima’s lemons and limes that have been pressed into juice and would otherwise be biowaste.
