The Story

Two great French brandies — one from grapes, one from apples.

Copper pot stills

Cognac: Grape to Glass

Cognac is a grape brandy made only in the Cognac region of France. White wine is double-distilled in copper pot stills, then aged for years in French oak — which gives it colour, warmth and complexity. The grades mark maturity: VS is at least two years, VSOP at least four, and XO at least ten.

Normandy orchards

Calvados: Apple Brandy

Calvados comes from Normandy, distilled from cider apples — and sometimes pears — then aged in oak. It shares cognac's elegance but carries bright orchard-fruit character: baked apple, pastry and warm spice. Lovely as a digestif, or in place of whisky in a sour.

How to Drink

Neat

In a tulip glass

Pour at room temperature and let it breathe — the classic way to enjoy fine cognac and calvados.

After dinner

A fine digestif

Both make a perfect digestif; in Normandy a splash of calvados between courses is a tradition — the trou normand.

In cocktails

Beyond the snifter

Cognac makes a superb Sidecar, French Connection or Sazerac; calvados shines in a sour.
