AI overview

Brandy is a strong alcoholic drink made by distilling wine, typically containing 35–60% alcohol and often enjoyed after dinner.

Brandy est un terme de langue anglaise qui désigne une eau-de-vie de vin, obtenue par distillation de vin de cépages rouges ou blancs. Le cognac est un type de brandy qui vient tout simplement de la région de Cognac. À partir du XVe siècle, les Néerlandais raffolent du cognac, ce brandewijn (« vin brûlé », d'où le terme anglais brandy et le terme français brandevin), qu'ils boivent coupé d'eau dans les tavernes, les ports, sur leurs bateaux, plus rarement chez eux.
