Armenia

Anush

Armenia is known as the motherland of viticulture and winemaking. Excavations in this area have lent strong support that Armenia's viticultural history goes back at least to Biblical times. Some of the very earliest systematic wine-growing did indeed arise here.

It may be true that the French brought cognac to the country back in 1887, but since then, Armenia has become a power in its own right. The key lies in the rich sunshine of Armenia, its high altitude and dry climate, its native grapes and, perhaps most of all, its spring water. Mix all that together and you get a brandy ('cognac'), which, while clearly related to its distant French parent, has a character all of its own.

The ten-year-old Dvin, 52% proof, was the favorite brandy of British wartime leader Winston Churchill. He was introduced to it by Soviet leader Joseph Stalin at the Yalta conference in 1944. Since then a case of Dvin was shipped out from Armenia every year until his death.
