Armenian national drink
Armenian national drink typically refers to brandy, known locally as "Armenian cognac," which has a rich tradition dating back centuries. This eaux-de-vie is made by distilling fermented grape juice, then aging it in oak barrels, resulting in a smooth, aromatic spirit with complex flavors of dried fruit, nuts, and spices. Renowned for its quality, Armenian cognac is regarded as a cultural symbol and is often enjoyed neat or during special occasions. Its production process and distinctive taste have garnered international acclaim, making it an esteemed representation of Armenia’s craftsmanship and heritage.
