    Cognac is named after the town of Cognac in France and is a variety of brandy. It is produced in the wine-growing region surrounding the town from which it takes its name. Ugni Blanc, which is known locally as Saint-Emilion, is the one most commonly used grape to produce Cognac. The region is divided in to six zones, Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Bordeies, Fins Bois, Bon Bois and lastly Bois Ordinaire, not to be confused with Champagne, the premier sparkling wine region in north east France.

    Strict guidelines must be followed for a distilled brandy to be legally labelled as a Cognac by the Appellation d’origine contrôlée. Only specific grapes are allowed to be used, of which Ugni Blanc is the most common. The brandy must be distilled twice in copper pot stills and aged for a minimum of 24 months in French oak barrels from Limousis or Tronçais.

    Blending is very common in Cognacs, and the age is derived from the age of the youngest grapes used in the blend. Cognacs develop and age in a similar way to Scotch Whiskies, though most Cognacs can age much longer than the legal requirement due to the time spent in the French oak barrels.

     

    Spirits

    Spirits, also known as liquor or hard alcohol, are alcoholic beverages that are typically distilled from fermented grains, fruits or vegetables. The distillation process increases the alcohol content of the beverage and gives it a unique flavor and aroma. Here are a few key points to know about spirits:

    There are many different types of spirits that are available, each with its own unique flavor profile. Some popular types of spirits include whiskey, rum, gin, tequila, vodka, brandy, and cognac. Whiskey is made from fermented grains such as barley, wheat, or rye and can have a smoky or woody flavor. Rum is made from sugarcane and can have a sweet, tropical flavor. Gin is made from juniper berries and can have a botanical, juniper-forward flavor. These are just a few examples of the wide variety of spirits that are available.

    The production of spirits begins with the fermentation of the base ingredients. This can involve the use of grains, fruits, or vegetables, depending on the type of spirit being made. Once the fermentation process is complete, the liquid is then distilled to increase the alcohol content. Distillation is a process that involves heating the liquid and capturing the resulting vapor. The vapor is then cooled and condensed back into liquid form, resulting in a higher alcohol content. After distillation, the liquid is aged in barrels, which can give it a unique flavor and aroma. The aging process can vary depending on the type of spirit and can range from a few months to several years.

    Spirits typically have a higher alcohol content than wine or beer, usually between 40-60% alcohol by volume (ABV). This is because the distillation process increases the alcohol content of the liquid.

    Tastes can vary depending on the type and the aging process. Whiskey, for example, can have a smoky or woody flavor, while rum can have a sweet, tropical flavor. The taste of spirits can also be influenced by the ingredients used and the distillation and aging processes.

    Spirits are typically consumed straight or on the rocks, but they can also be used as ingredients in cocktails. They can also be paired with food, like whiskey with steak, or tequila with spicy Mexican cuisine.

    Spirits have been consumed for centuries and are widely popular in many cultures around the world. The consumption of spirits has been increasing in recent years and it is considered a luxury product.
