Continuing our journey through Imereti, our road lay in Tskhaltubo. The plan is to visit the Prometheus Cave, a natural spring and a winery. In general, Tskaltubo is known for its unique natural springs and sanatoriums. Suddenly, coming out of the stalactite Cave of Prometheus, I saw a large reclining qvevri and the inscription in small letters - Wine Museum! Naturally, at that second all my plans changed and I no longer even walked, but ran towards the museum. I wasn’t even really interested in the fact that after visiting the Cave some bus should return us to our car. At that moment I looked with delight only at this huge lying qvevri and all my thoughts were already inside it. As it turned out later, it turned out to be a not very large hotel complex “Prometheus Epic Hotel & Spa” and the wine museum belonged to them. At the museum, we were met by a nice girl guide, Katie, and for an hour she spun in a wine dance filled with the history of Georgian winemaking, interesting wine events in Georgia, tasting of Qvevri wines, ancient wine accessories and modern technologies. I won’t lie, the museum made an impression on me. I asked our dear Gocha to call the administrator and owner of this complex to personally express my delight, say a few words of love, convey my admiration to the guide Katie and, of course, discuss further cooperation. The owner, named Irakli, personally gave a tour of his complex, in the process giving several orders regarding us and giving us the entire driver and car, he politely said goodbye. We had to refuse the invitation to lunch because we had already deviated from the route. We couldn't leave without buying premium wine, especially since the wine I bought received 9 medals at various world festivals. And Natasha Nataliya Lozovsky treated herself to wine - Usekhelauri, with which I am completely and irrevocably in love. Irakli kindly ordered to give us a discount and gifts and his driver returned us to the car. Once again I want to say words of gratitude and love to this incredibly warm and welcoming Country - Sakartvelo and its wonderful people! Peace and prosperity to you! Amen! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 🇬🇪❤️🇬🇪❤️🇬🇪❤️
