Prince Albert II of Monaco and Armen Pogossian, Co-owner of Jardins d’Arménie Jardins d’Arménie Royal Brandy “Jardins d’Arménie represents a combination of heritage and craftsmanship, and as we officially launch in the United States, this occasion gives us the opportunity to share that story with an extraordinary new audience,” says Armen Pogossian, co-owner of Jardins d’Arménie. Jardins d’Arménie made its international debut in Monaco in September 2025, unveiling Royal Brandy at a gala at the Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo attended by H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco. The brand continued its international expansion in 2026 with an event during Paris Fashion Week, as well as participation as a Crystal Partner of the 65th Monte-Carlo Television Festival. During the September 2026 Pre-Emmys two-day gifting experience, Hollywood tastemakers will discover the ultra-premium, 35-year Royal Brandy. Produced in limited quantities, Royal Brandy draws on indigenous Armenian grapes, primarily Voskehat, grown across Armenia’s distinctive highland terroirs. Jardins d’Arménie’s launch into the U.S. market comes as the global luxury spirits category enters a more selective era. According to IWSR, the United States has emerged as the world’s No. 2 market for status spirits—defined as products with a global weighted average retail price of $100 or more per bottle—underscoring the opportunity for distinctive, heritage-driven luxury spirits to reach American collectors and connoisseurs. A Private Audience With Royal Brandy Beyond the gifting lounge, Emmy nominees and presenters will have an opportunity to host a private tasting for themselves and their guests, creating a personal introduction to the history, craftsmanship and character behind Royal Brandy. The activations align with the brand’s approach to modern luxury: deliberately intimate, highly curated and centered on memorable experiences. Craftsmanship Rooted in Centuries-Old Armenian History Jardins d’Arménie’s Royal Brandy is a modern expression of an ancient craft dating as far back as 4100 B.C. Indigenous Armenian grapes are sourced from the highlands of Aragatsotn, the rocky vineyards of Vayots Dzor and the sunlit terraces of Armavir, where vineyards benefit from more than 300 days of sunshine and mineral-rich volcanic soils. Archaeological research by UCLA scientists, known as the Areni-1 discovery, confirms that the Vayots Dzor Province in southern Armenia is home to the oldest complete wine-production facility then known —with a wine press, fermentation vat, grape remains and drinking vessels uncovered at the site. Royal Brandy expands upon this rich Armenian tradition, creating its unique culture by utilizing a three-stage maturation process: Armenian Luxury Launching in Hollywood Jardins d’Arménie’s Pre-Emmys participation represents a strategic step in the brand’s introduction to discerning American audiences —combining luxury, entertainment and culture.
