Above we start with two vodkas. Matreska is probably the best known vodka from Georgia.
BsG, Black Sea Group, make a large range of spirits and wine. The next bottle is a brandy
from Kakhetian Traditional Winemaking. The final bottle above is from Elizbar Talakvadre
but I do not know what is in it.
The two Kakhuri bottles are very new. Both are filled with Chacha, the first
Tarragon and the second Honey. The other two bottles above are also
reasonably new and also contain Chacha, this time Grape & Tarragon.
Kakhetian Traditional Winemaking is the manufacturer. Tbilisi Brandy on
the right is named after the largest city and capital of Georgia.
On the next page we have six clip-top bottles from Vinotheca. All contain
40ml of grape Chacha, the golden ones at 50° and the clear at 70°. I have
saved the best for last. Zearis is a bottle in a bottle. The blown glass grapes
insert contains red wine. The main, 50ml, bottle contains Chacha. This is a
well known arrangement for Hungarian bottles but this is a particularly good
example.
