Â"Excuse me, Mister Caroff but the Armenian brandy is better than the
French oneÂ", Foreign Minister of Russia Sergey Lavrov told President
and Director General of the Yerevan Brandy Company, having tasted a
little of "ArArAt" brandy.
During his visit to YBC, Sergey Lavrov had highly appreciated the
Company's traditions. The Russian FM appended his signature on the
Barrel of Peace, that should be opened the day of signing a peaceful
agreement on Nagorno Karabakh.
During the excursion, Director General of YBC Herve Caroff told
the Russian guest that the Company produces 6 mln bottles of brandy
annually, 90% of which are for export. According to him, the lion's
share of the brandy export falls on Russia, that is 2,5 mln bottles.
To note, the YBC is a constituent part of Pernod Ricard French group
of companies, the second producer of alcohol drinks on a global scale.
