The Yerevan Brandy Company is a notable Armenian brandy producer situated in Yerevan, the capital of Armenia. Established in 1887, it stands as a symbol of Armenia's brandy-making heritage.

Tour participants have the opportunity to visit aging cellars and taste premium brandies. The company’s museum exhibits old documents, photographs, and vintage brandy barrels, highlighting the evolution of brandy production in Armenia.
