https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brandy

"Brandy is a spirit produced by distilling wine... In broader sense, the term "brandy" also denotes liquors obtained from distillation of pomace (pomace brandy) or mash or wine of any other fruit (fruit brandy). These products are also named eaux-de-vie."

Conan kicked us off a few months ago in the whino thread.

Not sure if this belongs here but since it's a brandy thought it'd be closer to wine than beer, rum, sake or whiskey:

Boulard Calavados Pays d'Auge


I've decided to explore some Brandies so lets do it. Post your Brandy/Cognac/Armagnac/Calvados/Grappa/Applejack/ etc.

Last night-

Copper & Kings Cr&ftwerks - Against the Grain
http://www.copperandkings.com/crftwerk/crftwerk-against-the-grain/

Finished in smoked scottish ale barrels. I took a sip and thought **** something was mis labeled. This tastes like scotch, a good high proof scotch!

If you like scotch, I recommend giving this a try.

Hey we got some brandy drinkers out there!! Tonight I did a Armagnac sample from Reddit. It's a K&L pick from Jean-bon. 1987 vintage aged 28 years. Phenomenal!!!!!! Earthy rich spirit with heavy oak and fruit notes.
