Ararat 5 Stars is a celebrated Armenian brandy, meticulously crafted by the Yerevan Brandy Company, a name synonymous with quality and tradition since 1887. This brandy is distilled from carefully selected Armenian grapes and aged for a minimum of five years in Caucasian oak casks, allowing it to develop its distinctive character and depth. The "5 Stars" designation indicates the minimum age of the youngest spirit in the blend, guaranteeing a certain level of maturity and complexity.
On the nose, it presents inviting aromas of dried fruits such as apricot and fig, intertwined with hints of vanilla, caramel, and subtle oak. The palate is smooth and well-balanced, with a gentle sweetness and a pleasant warmth, revealing layers of fruit, spice, and a long, lingering finish. The 40% ABV provides a robust yet harmonious drinking experience.
The 500ml bottle is ideal for personal enjoyment, sharing with friends, or as a sophisticated gift. Ararat 5 Stars is best savoured neat in a snifter to fully appreciate its intricate flavour profile, or with a single ice cube to gently open up its aromatic complexities. It is an excellent digestif or a fine companion for after-dinner conversation.
