When drinking, use the fingers of the middle finger and the ring finger to clamp the handle of the cup, let the temperature of the hand pass into the cup to warm the wine slightly, thereby increasing the taste and aroma of the wine. It is better to pour no more than 1/3.

How to drink brandy
First, pour the cognac brandy into the tulip glass about 1/3 full, and then pinch the bottom of the glass foot with your fingers to prevent the palm temperature from reaching the glass and affecting the wine quality. Then the rest of the tasting steps are as follows:
[Appreciate the color] Take the glass to the light source and observe the color and clarity of the cognac. A good quality cognac should be golden or amber, not red.
[Test Consistency] Tilt the cup body about 45 degrees, turn it slowly for a week, then stand the cup body upright, and let the wine juice slide down the wall of the cup. For the so-called "wine feet"; the better the cognac, the slower the sliding speed and the rounder the wine feet. [Smell the aroma] Move the wine glass from a distance to the nose, measure the intensity and basic aroma of the aroma by the distance at which you can smell the aroma of cognac, then gently shake the wine glass, gradually approach the nose, and finally bring the nose closer Smell the wine deeply from the glass to identify the characteristics of the various aromas and determine the staying power of the wine. The aroma of cognac brandy includes the elegant grape aroma, the woody flavor of oak barrels, the natural fragrance of grass and flowers, etc. To enjoy these different aromas, you must inhale deeply and feel it with the nose near the intersection of the eyebrows. .
 
[Taste the wine] Start tasting the cognac from the tip of the tongue. First, slide some alcohol between the tongues, and then let the wine flow to the base of the tongue along the edge of the tongue, and then slide it in the mouth. After entering the throat, take advantage of the opportunity to inhale and swallow the wine. Let the mellow and thick wine smell come out, and then smell it deeply with your nose, and digest all the essence between your mouth, nose, tongue and throat.
 
Brandy is the transliteration of English Brandy, which is a wine made from fruit, fermented and distilled. Commonly called brandy refers to wine made from grapes and then distilled through fermentation. For wines made from other fruits by the same method, the name of the fruit raw material is often added in front of the brandy to distinguish its types. For example, brandy made from cherries is called Cherry Brandy, and brandy made from apples is called Apple Brandy. The term "brandy" belongs to the term, the Chinese equivalent of "shochu". Brandy is produced all over the world, and the best wine is produced in France, so the French brandy is also the best, among which the cognac brandy (COGNAC BRANDY) is especially famous in the world. All cognac is brandy, but not all brandy is cognac. Cognac is distilled from the wine produced by Charente in France, and it is restricted and guaranteed by the law. The brandy distilled from the wine produced in other places cannot legally be called Cognac.
 
All brandy distilleries use letters to distinguish quality, for example:
E stands for ESPECIAL (special)
F is for FINE (good)
V stands for VERY (very good)
O stands for OLD (old)
S stands for SUPERIOR (good)
P is for PALE (pale and old)
X stands for EXTRA (extra)
X.O represents a grade of cognac
The quality of Cognac surpasses other brandies, not only because of the special distillation techniques in the region, but also because of the good soil, good weather, etc. in the region, so the grapes produced are particularly good.
 
There are many ways to drink brandy. 1. It is a clean drink---use a brandy glass, then pour some brandy (preferably 1/4 of a bottle. In addition, a water glass with a glass of ice water, when drinking, hold the wall of the brandy glass with your hand, and let the temperature of your palm pass through the wine glass Warm the brandy a little to let its fragrance evaporate. Fill the whole wine glass, smell and drink, then you can really enjoy the mystery of drinking brandy. The function of ice water is: after drinking a small sip of brandy, drink a sip of ice water to refresh the taste. Makes the next sip of brandy more mellow. When you take a breath, the fragrance of brandy stays in your mouth for a long time.
 
There is also an occasional drinking method---adding water. Chinese people like to add ice, which is just a normal brand of brandy. For a well-aged cognac, adding water and ice is a waste of decades of aging time and loses its sweet and mellow taste. Therefore, it is generally recommended not to add aged brandy.
 
In the drinking method of brandy, many women like to drink wine mixed with beverages. More common are: brandy and cola. Use a glass, put half a glass of ice, a small amount of brandy, more cola than wine, and stir with a small spoon. The taste is also quite special, and many people compare this drinking method to drinking cocktails. This is the biggest mistake!
