ArmInfo. ARARAT Single Cask 12 YO is the continuation of the ARARAT Single Cask innovative series launched by Yerevan Brandy Company back in 2017. The remarkable success of the predecessor of ARARAT Single Cask 12 YO – the first innovative drink of ARARAT, inspired the masters of Yerevan Brandy Company to continue the series, showing that innovation is not only about constant improvement, but also about finding new and unexpected facets.
