Fellowship of Whisky, VYS In a Nutshell

The abbreviation VYS comes from the original Finnish name of our fellowship: Viskin Ystävien Seura. We are a registered association under Finnish law. Our goal is to bring together whisky enthusiasts and anyone interested in whiskies to share their experiences of tastes. We are open to all styles of whisky, as well as all whisky producing regions. Our fellowship operates all over Finland. By organising tastings and other events we activate whisky enthusiasts and bring new experiences. Whisky importers and selected restaurants are our close partners.
