Company History
It was founded on the basis of the state farm Ilinskoye-Usovo and belonged to the economic trusts of the USSR. In then, in a very small workshop, the fruits were processed, on the basis of which all the alcoholic beverages of a small enterprise were made. Basically it was port, vermouth and wine. In parallel, the plant produced various jams and preserves from the same berries and fruits. In 1985, the well-known dry law came into force , thanks to which the company had to switch to the production of exclusively non-alcoholic goods - different types of kvass and apple cider vinegar.
In 1989, the law was repealed, and Usovsky Cellars was again allowed to produce alcohol-based products. The assortment included vodka, and the product line was updated already in the 2000s, when “Usovsky” cognac began to be produced.
