The best Armenian cognac is supposed to be Ararat, from the Yerevan Brandy Company, which can be bought in several shops all over town as well as from the distillery plant itself.
What to buy: Armenian cognacs are aged 6 to 70 years and are from 40 to 57 alcohol proof. The usual ones are aed up to 20 years, but it is also possible to find, with some luck and plenty of money some rarities... like Erebuni (25 years), Kilikia (30 years), Sparapet (40 years) and the very special Noah's Ark (70 years).
What to pay: For simpler cognacs about 15-30 dollars

The Market (shuka) on Mashtots is a place where you can buy vegetables, fruits (it was strawberry season when I was there - very delicious) and Armenian sweets. Different kind of nuts, honey, raisins and figs are often used in the sweets. I bought some tasty sweets that had been made by threading walnuts on a string than repeatedly dipping it in grape juice (it was more tasty then the ones I tried in Turkey).
