The Story of Boduen

Boduen was born from childhood memories, friendship, and devotion. Mikael and his friend grew up among the vineyards of their grandfathers. They helped harvest the grapes, inhaled the scent of sun and soil captured in the clusters, and watched with curiosity as cognac spirit was born in the oak barrels - at the old distillery where, for the first time, the magic of craftsmanship came alive for them. Back then, they had no idea that these moments would lay the foundation for their future.

Years passed, carrying away the carefree days of childhood. Fate led the friends down different paths. Mikael enrolled at a university in France and stayed there for an extended period. Yet, the years spent far from home could not erase from his memory the native land and the vineyard left unattended. Thoughts of it kept returning. He knew he had to come back and continue the family legacy - tending the lands where nature’s gifts are born.

The day had come when the call of his native land grew stronger than time and distance. Mikael returns to Armenia - to the place where it all began. His heart races with excitement as he moves toward his childhood, unaware of what lies ahead, yet filled with anticipation and readiness to face reality. But what he sees surpasses all expectations: the vineyard is alive, flourishing, and abundant, with each cluster of grapes standing as a promise of the future. 

And then comes a meeting filled with warmth and symbolism. It turns out that all this time, his childhood friend had been tending the vineyards, preserving them in their original state. He welcomes Mikael and leads him to the place where it all began — the old distillery. Behind its walls, everything remains as it once was: the familiar scent of oak, the quiet, and the patient passage of time. Behind the door lies the cellar, where cognac spirits continue to mature just as before, and on the door hung a plaque that stirred the deepest emotions in Mikael. It embodied the union of the past and the new future, encapsulating the full strength of devotion and the continuity of tradition.

– This is yours.
– No, it’s ours,

said Mikael, already knowing what he would name the cognac born from true friendship.
