Brandy is a strong alcohol made from fermented fruit juice or distilled wine. Brandy is derived from wine, but is aged in oak barrels, which increases the alcohol content and gives it a unique color. This form of alcohol usually contains between 30 and 60% alcohol by volume, which can give a punch when drunk.
The name comes from the Dutch word 'brandewijn' and is obtained by distilling the wine further to increase the alcohol content. Other common names for cognac are Applejack, Armagnac and Cognac. There are many varieties, based on different fruits. However, it is usually enjoyed as an after-dinner drink and not as something to be drunk all evening, as some people do with wine or beer at a party.
