It must be distilled twice in copper pot stills and aged at least 2 and 1/2 years in oak barrels in order to be called cognac.|||Some back history on brandy, during the colonial times, they were having trouble shipping wine over seas over vast distances without the wine going sour so they decided to distill the wine into a liquor which the buyer could then reconstitute with water upon receiving the shipment. Needless to say, they liked the taste of the new liquor just as it was and that's how brandy came into being.|||Yes, Brandy comes from Grapes.
