Kyrö Unveils Game of Thrones Rye Whisky Duo: Fire and Blood

Finland's Kyrö Distillery has launched an official Game of Thrones collection in partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products. The release pairs two 100% malted rye whiskies built around the show's central tension between Targaryen flame and ancestral bloodline: Kyrö Game of Thrones Whisky of Fire and Kyrö Game of Thrones Whisky of Blood .

Design & Presentation

Both bottles ship in a custom box inspired by Westeros cartography and the symbolism of the saga. The presentation is built for collectors of the show as much as for whisky drinkers, with the design treating each release as a counterpoint to the other rather than a matched pair.

Maturation & Flavor Profile

Whisky of Fire is a smoky malted rye, matured in ex-bourbon casks and finished in former rum casks. Bottled at 46.6% ABV, the rum cask finish layers sweetness and warmth over Kyrö's smoky rye character.

Whisky of Blood uses the same 100% malted rye spirit, matured in a combination of ex-bourbon casks and French oak. Bottled at 46% ABV, the French oak brings a tighter, more structured oak influence that contrasts the rum-led sweetness of its sibling.

Tasting Approach

• Whisky of Fire: Smoky malted rye, layered with sweetness and warmth from the rum cask finish.
• Whisky of Blood: 100% malted rye carried by the structure of French oak balanced against ex-bourbon maturation.

Release Perspective

Kyrö co-founder and Master Distiller Kalle Valkonen has framed the collection as an attempt to create something that feels authentic to both the Game of Thrones universe and Kyrö's own rye whisky philosophy, rather than a licensed novelty.

Release & Availability

The collection launches on 25 May 2026 as a limited edition for selected markets, with a recommended retail price of 80 euros per 700ml bottle. Both bottles are available through Spiritory: Whisky of Fire and Whisky of Blood .
