The story about Stalin and Churchill and the alleged fondness of the latter to Armenian brandy is one of many urban legends about Churchill roaming on Russian internet sites. Of course, Armenian sources have been energetically promulgating this hoax. The article does not cite any credible source; the quoted BBC features quote Armenian oral sources, and one explicitly says that no Churchill biographer ever mentioned this fact - which is true.

Churchill Museum site states unequivocally that Churchill was devoted to one label, and namely Hine's. See http://www.winstonchurchill.org/learn/reference/frequently-asked-questions-faq/personal-life — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mdina (talk • contribs) 22:16, 22 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Bottlings/Vintages

The Vaspyurakan (an ancient Armenian city) is the 15 year old and is currently available. The 7 year old bottling is now called "Endir" ("Select"). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hishyeness (talk • contribs) 17:27, 25 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Brandy or cognac?

In Russia this beverage is referred to as cognac (коньяк). You can see it in the corresponding Ru-Wiki article. Why is it called brandy here? Ivan the Knight (talk) 18:10, 30 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Winston Churchill and Armenian Brandy

I'm not sure why this urban legend is considered as a fact but here a source that confirms that there is no reliable non-Armenian source that every mentions this as a fact!One if the authors was Armenian so i wouldn'y go ahead and blame any authors for being biased1 [1] Jump up ^ https://books.google.com.qa/books?id=0oXYX9Qzx9oC&pg=PA160&lpg=PA160&dq=churchill+armenian+brandy&source=bl&ots=f7Pr1kE1S0&sig=oyQI99XnA9PNNWaaHYDJ8l89Nq8&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjq0cLi8KzXAhUFBMAKHVAJCeoQ6AEIYTAM#v=onepage&q=churchill%20armenian%20brandy&f=false — Preceding unsigned comment added by 37.210.151.95 (talk) 16:35, 7 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Several attempts to add credible references debunking this myth, including a reference to Churchill's Museum web site, were immediately reverted by one and the same user, obviously a hired advertiser for this brandy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mdina (talk • contribs) 14:53, 15 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Remove this advertisement.

I made a few edits to this article. Upon further examination, I think it should be remove completely as it has no encyclopedia value. It is clearly an advertisement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Absolutely Certainly (talk • contribs) 06:36, 16 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
