Editors Note: Last night, Natalie and I discovered that Mr. Sketchy McSketcherson was unsatisfied with his stay at our residence and decided to leave and take the precious Internet with him. We thank him for everything he has done for us and we are truly blessed to have met him. Hopefully, he comes to his senses and comes back to where he belongs. In conclusion, I will try my best to keep up with my blog posts as much as I can.
This past Tuesday, AAAInterns2009 were treated to a visit to the Ararat Brandy Factory. A couple of things I learned on the tour:
- The President of Lithuania has his own barrel of brandy with a golden plaque on it engraved with his name and apparently he can do whatever he wants with it when the brandy is ready. I think right after he drinks brandy he should use the barrel as a fun-hiding place. That’s what I would do.
- We tasted three different types of brandy: Ararat, Aghtamar and Nariyi. Nariyi is aged for 20 years and is considered the best out of the three.
- A good Armenian would know this fact: Winston Churchill only drank Armenian Congac and smoked Cuban cigars. That man knew how to live.
- The tour guide told us that the brandy glass must be held in your left hand and you have to hold it close to your heart.
I don't know about the brandy, but I definitely can say that even though I have known everyone for about a month now....I hold the people in the picture above close to my heart.
Too easy.
