F.A.Q. about trips to the Greater Caucasus

    • Georgia has been making wine for more than 8,000 years and is considered the cradle of winemaking. One of the oldest methods of wine production included in the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage list is the use of kvevri vessels, in which the grape juice is buried underground. This is how the juice ferments and slowly turns into an extremely delicious wine.
    • As many as twelve different climate zones can be found in the tiny territory of Georgia, including subtropical, alpine, and semi-desert zones. Additionally, 49 soil types are also found here. In the dense forests of the country, you can encounter leopards, lynxes, bears, and other wild animals.
    • The mountains near Baku, Azerbaijan, are constantly burning with an open flame. The flame is caused by the contact of underground natural gas reserves with oxygen.
