Good spirits have been valued by people at all times. Whatever price the manufacturer sets, quality has always been in demand. Currently, there are many brands of cognac, expensive and cheap, one of them is Dvin. Cognac reviews, description, composition and how to recognize a fake - all this will be described in the article.

History

The drink was first created for the Y alta Conference in 1945. The order was made by Stalin himself, and the cognac turned out to be excellent. Alcohol was very fond of Winston Churchill, who was present at the meeting. Iosif Vissarionovich offered him to taste one glass, but that was enough for the ruler of England to become a fan of Dvin.

Creator of cognac - Markar Sedrakyan. Only he managed to mix all the ingredients so that the drink turned out to be both very strong (50%) and at the same time light. At one point, the Armenian was exiled to Siberia, but then returned thanks to his creation. Churchill complained to Stalin that cognac was losing its charm, and its taste was no longer the same. The replacement of the manufacturer affected, so everything returned to normal.

By the way, the ruler of England drankdaily bottle of 0.7 liters of "Dvina" up to 70 years. On his 75th birthday, Iosif Vissarionovich sent him 75 bottles, which Sir Winston was immensely happy about, but expressed regret that he did not hit 100 that day.

Description

Why did Churchill and many other people like the collection cognac "Dvin" so much? The description will not be able to fully convey its charm, because such things must be tried. But some features can be distinguished.

Firstly, the drink is very strong, not every person can stand it. But at the same time, it has a bright aftertaste that makes you drink it again and again.

Secondly, due to long aging in oak barrels, cognac acquires an amber color with a red tint, as well as a unique aroma. The minimum aging of the drink is 10 years.

The history of the collection cognac "Dvin" reports that for a certain period of time production was closed due to unknown circumstances. However, in 2011 it resumed, and the drink found a new package and an improved taste.

Benefit

Large doses of alcohol adversely affect the state of the human body, especially the liver. You should not abuse it, but in small quantities any alcohol is useful.

Cognac is a quality drink made from natural products. Exposure helps to gain strength, to show the taste in all its glory. The decoction of herbs underlying the recipe gives the body the necessary substances, and seasoned with alcohol it becomes a real one.medicine.

Firstly, cognac is good for the gastrointestinal tract. It enhances the production of gastric juice, improves appetite, helps digestion and assimilation of food. It is enough to drink one glass before a meal, and the intestines will thank you a month later. Over time, the desire to overeat will disappear, and this is the key not only to good digestion, but also to a beautiful figure.

Secondly, alcohol warms the body. With hypothermia, the best recipe is hot tea with a tablespoon of cognac. Such a drink will replace a heating pad and will be the best remedy for colds.

Thirdly, people whose bodies do not absorb vitamin C well should pay attention to the drink. If you sprinkle an orange or lemon with amber liquid, the tannin contained in it will solve the problem completely.

Composition

Collection cognac "Dvin" composition is almost the same as any other. The drink is based on a decoction of herbs with the addition of berries and spices.

Legendary alcohol contains a decoction of dried fruits. When mixed, its taste acquired sweet notes and a unique fruity aroma. To bring out the beauty of the drink, the liquid was flavored with cloves.

Another unusual ingredient is nuts. In "Dvin" it is forest, fragrant, sun-ripened fruits that add astringency and a little bitterness.

As mentioned earlier, cognac is infused exclusively in oak barrels, which also contribute to the taste. The tree has a special aroma, and whencombined with dried fruits, nuts and spices, it turns out just an incredible drink.

The rest of the ingredients are hidden, because the company will not sell its secret for any money. And buyers can only enjoy cognac "Dvin". Feedback from connoisseurs of the drink is presented below.

Reviews

Since the described drink is a very high-quality product, almost everyone is satisfied with its quality. Customer reviews of cognac "Dvin" are mostly positive.

Firstly, the majority highlights the unique taste of alcohol, its simultaneous strength and lightness. The aftertaste is bitter, but pleasant. Even women like the drink.

Secondly, the relatively short aging for cognac (5-10 years) does not prevent it from remaining just as pleasant. The high alcohol content is not perceptible due to the sweetness and astringency in all its glory.

The only criterion that does not always suit buyers is the price. Although everyone claims that it is quite reasonable for such a quality drink, but still I would like a smaller one.

Varieties

Cognac "Dvin" (see photo in the article) is a product of the Armenian company "Ararat". The quality of the drink of this country is known all over the world. Fruits and herbs that have grown under the hot sun of the southern state are carefully harvested and then turned into fragrant spirits.

There are several popular brands of Armeniancognac:

• "Nairi". He is the pride of the country. A bouquet of herbs, which became its basis, gives a unique aroma to the drink, colors the liquid in a dark brown color. The fortress is 41%. The advantage is aging: each subspecies of cognac is infused in the cellars for at least 20 years.
• "Ararat". It belongs to one of the most popular not only in Armenia, but throughout the world. There are 3-, 4- and 5-star varieties, each with its own unique taste, smell and color. Fortress - 40%. Many say it outperforms most Western counterparts.
• "Choice". Cognac is fully consistent with its name. It consists of spirits aged for at least 6-7 years. The velvety flavor is appreciated by amateurs.

How to drink

A true connoisseur of this wonderful drink will say that cognac cannot be drunk, it can only be enjoyed, this is the main principle. Many people turn a blind eye to such things and drink strong alcohol in glasses, in one gulp, eating whatever they have to. When it comes to expensive cognac, then with this approach, we can say that money wasted.

• It is important to choose the right glass. At the base, it should be wider, upward - narrow. It is convenient to hold the container with the palm of your hand, completely wrapping it around.
• Drink only in small sips, either without eating at all or savoring dark chocolate. The common lemon blocks the taste buds, and the taste of the drink is not fully felt.least, so it is better to refuse it.
• The liquid needs to be shaken a little sometimes to bring out the flavor. Then the cognac will open completely, be felt by all receptors and imprinted in your memory with its astringency.

Cost

Reviews of the collection cognac "Dvin" almost unanimously say that this drink is almost the best among all brands. The quality is felt from the first sips, so the price of the product is appropriate.

Currently, the market has developed fraud, which consists in counterfeiting well-known brands. Cognac "Dvin" (reviews confirm this) is subject to the same fate. If you met alcohol for 2000 rubles or less, then this is a 100% fake. Even a bottle for 5000 rubles, most likely, will not be original.

The company involved in the production of "Dvin" puts the price at least 7,000 rubles. With the growth of the exchange rate, the cost has risen, although before real booze could be found for 2000 rubles. The product has a 10-year aging, beautiful packaging and a blue label.

Finding a collection of cognac "Dvin", according to reviews, is not so difficult. Usually the drink is imported into alcohol-profiling alcohol stores, but sometimes it is found in hypermarkets.

How to identify a fake

Connoisseurs of expensive alcohol can identify a "scorched" drink by smell and taste, but, unfortunately, it is impossible to do a tasting of the product in the store. Therefore, when buying, pay attention to the followingcriteria:

• Price. The production of cognac takes a huge amount of products, effort and time, and therefore it costs accordingly. The cheapest item is estimated at 10-15 US dollars. If the price is less, it's time to think about a fake.
• Packaging. Expensive producers of high-quality cognac always pay special attention to the "wrapper": the bottle should not be too pretentious, but even the simplest one will not work; the cork tightly and from all sides closes the neck; the company logo is always on the front side, closer to the center.
• Label. In addition to the name, it should indicate the date of production of cognac, the type of alcohol, the place of production and the country, as well as a list of the main components.
• Color. The longer the brandy has exposure, the lighter its shade becomes. If the label says that the drink is more than 10 years old, and its color is determined exclusively as brown, then the product is 100% fake.

Additional application

The tips below can be done not only with Dvin cognac, any other is fine:

• Throat treatment. To cure a sore throat or a cold, mix cognac with honey and lemon. Gargle with the resulting mixture for several days. There is simply no better medicine.
• For hair growth. There are many masks based on alcohol. They contribute to the restoration of hair follicles and activate growth. This drink has also been proven to get rid of dandruff.
• Grinding. With a cold, you can not only usecognac inside, but also rub it. The hot effect will cause the blood to run through the body and secrete antibodies against the virus.
