When a brandy bottle does not state exactly what it is made from, it means the brandy is based on grape wine.
In its modern form, brandy began to spread from the 12th century. This alcoholic drink gained great popularity in the 14th century. Today brandy is produced in many countries around the world. There are three types of brandy in all. Traditional brandy is made from grape wine. Fermented grape juice is distilled, and the result is brandy. Usually the bottle of such brandy does not state what it is made from.
The second type of brandy,
fruit brandy
, is made from any fruit or berries except grapes. As a rule, fruit brandy uses
apples
,
cherry
,
blueberries
,
plums
,
peaches
,
raspberry
,
apricots
. Fruit brandy is clear and served with ice.
The third type of brandy,
pomace brandy
, is made from the stems, grape pulp, and grape seeds. Georgian chacha, like Italian grappa or rakia, is also brandy in its essence.
All three types of brandy, in turn, are divided into many more varieties. Thus, classic grape brandy includes cognac, armagnac,
sherry brandy
, Greek grape brandy, divin, and American grape brandy. Fruit brandy includes slivovitz, calvados, borovička, kirschwasser, framboise, and others.
