Cognac Varietals
Cognac is a type of brandy that is produced in the Cognac region of France. It is made from white wine that is distilled twice and then aged in oak barrels for a minimum of two years. The aging process gives Cognac its distinct flavor and aroma, which is often described as rich, complex, and smooth.
There are several varieties of Cognac, each with its own unique characteristics. The most common types are VS (Very Special), VSOP (Very Superior Old Pale), and XO (Extra Old). VS Cognac is aged for a minimum of two years, while VSOP is aged for at least four years. XO Cognac is aged for a minimum of six years, although many brands age their XO Cognac for much longer.
One of the most famous Cognac brands is Hennessy. Founded in 1765, Hennessy is the largest Cognac producer in the world. Their VS Cognac is a blend of up to 40 different eaux-de-vie (the distilled wine that is aged in oak barrels), while their XO Cognac is aged for a minimum of 10 years and is a blend of up to 100 different eaux-de-vie.

Critical Acclaim
I rarely drink hard alcohol or after dinner drinks such as this, but it was unreal in its silkiness and exquisite bouquet. I have never before tasted a Cognac of such magnificence.
