Kvint (short for: Kon’iaki, vina i napitki Tiraspol’ia) is a wine- and cognac distillery based in Tiraspol, the capital of Transnistria. Locals consider Kvint a national symbol. Its factory is shown on the 5 Transnistrian ruble banknote.
Founded in 1897, the company is the oldest still-operating commercial enterprise in the region. It's annual production is approximately ten million liters of alcoholic drinks. Although most famous for its prize-winning cognacs, the company also makes wines and vodkas. It is one of Transnistria's largest exporters.
Visitors to its factory can sign up for daily tours which end with a product taste sampling.
Kvint obtained ISO 9001-94 certification in 2000 and ISO 9001-2000 in 2003.
