Armenian distillation techniques

Armenian distillation techniques primarily focus on producing high-quality spirits, particularly vodka and brandy, using traditional methods. The process typically involves fermenting fruit, mostly apricots or grapes, to create a mash. This mash is then distilled in copper stills, which help enhance the flavor and purity of the spirit. The distillation process involves heating the mash to separate alcohol from water and other components, capturing the essence of the fruit. The resulting spirits are often aged in oak barrels, developing a rich flavor profile that reflects the region's cultural heritage and craftsmanship.
