Brandy Sarajishvili VS with 2x glasses in gift box – 700 ml.

Sarajishvili VS – Fresh Georgian Brandy with Notes of Vanilla, Apricot and Honey

VS (Very Special) is the most approachable brandy in the range – and the calling card of the whole house. It shows best what sets Georgian brandy apart: the freshness of Georgian grapes combined with the smoothness only time in oak can give. The blenders bring together distillates of different ages and origins, so young, fruity and lively spirits meet ones that have rested in casks for a full decade in a single glass.

The result is a brandy that is neither heavy nor cloying – clean, balanced and easy to drink. It suits newcomers to Georgian brandy as well as connoisseurs looking for a reliable everyday classic.

The name that means brandy in Georgia

The brand goes back to David Sarajishvili – entrepreneur, scientist and generous patron of Georgian culture – who in the 1880s founded Tbilisi’s first brandy distillery using French cognac methods. His spirits soon won gold medals at international exhibitions, and today the brand holds more than 200 awards. Why Georgian brandy is often called “cognac” is explained in our article Georgian cognac, brandy or gruzignac?
