Cognac
Cognac is a superbly stately spirit that traces its origins to the 17th century when distillers in the Charente in France were tasked to help the wines from their region withstand the rigors of being shipped to other European ports across choppy waters. In time, this ‘burned wine’ (as brandy was initially called) was found to be so superior that its production became strictly regulated, and only spirits from this particular region could be called cognac.
Today fine cognacs such as Bisquit & Dubouché provide the base for a marvelous assortment of cocktails around the globe. From the classicly zesty Sidecar to the always iconic Tangerine Napoleon, there is a cognac cocktail out there to delight even the most discerning cocktail connoisseur (and the most laid-back newbie!).
