Kislyy Kvas Rodnik
This sulphur spring was located near the former village of Terpeniye in the Shuragel district of Kars province, Russia (present-day Akyaka district, Kars province, Turkey). Because of its sour odour, which the Doukhobors likened to kvas (a fermented drink popular in Russia), they named it Kislyy Kvas Rodnik (Кислый Квас Родник) meaning “sour kvas spring”. The name fell into disuse after the Doukhobors left the region in 1918-1921. [40° 47' N - 43° 35' E]
