Ararat Ani 7 Years is crafted using traditional methods inspired by French cognac production. This includes the double distillation process that ensures a smooth and flavorful distillate. The spirit is then aged for 7 years in Armenian oak barrels, a key factor that imparts its distinctive taste and aroma. The barrels, made from high-quality local oak, lend unique spicy and vanilla notes to the brandy while allowing it to mature gracefully in Armenia’s ideal climatic conditions. This unique brandy contains 40% alcohol by volume.

This unique brandy has a radiant, deep amber hue, reflective of its careful aging process. Its aroma is inviting, fresh, and fruity, with subtle notes of fresh orange peel and oak bark. The palate is smooth and rich, with a perfect balance of fruitiness and sweetness. The flavors of lemon, caramel, and dried figs blend harmoniously, creating a nuanced and layered experience. This exquisite taste experience is rounded off with a long, pleasant almond finish, leaving a lasting impression of refinement and quality.

Ararat Ani 7 Years is versatile when it comes to pairings. Enjoy it neat or slightly chilled. For a gourmet experience, pair it with dark chocolate, nuts, dried fruits, or mild cheeses. It also complements desserts like crème brûlée or caramelized pears, enhancing the sweet and fruity nuances of the brandy. The brandy is best served at a temperature between 16°C - 18°C. This range allows its rich aromas and flavors to be fully appreciated.
