Recommend A Brandy

[bobarian]

I am going to assume you mean cognac and not something like a Christian Brothers Brandy @ $8/bottle. I would go with something basic like a Remy Martin or Hennessey VSOP for around $30/bottle. Try one of those and if you dont like it you havent blown $100 on something you wont drink.

One of the best bang-for-the-buck bottles I have run across is Tbilisi Reserve XO. It's a Georgian (think Soviet, not Atlanta) brandy that is as smooth as silk. It retails somewhere in the $38-42 range.

Thanks for reminding me about this. I had to dig through my pantry to find my bottle. Now it's at the front of the shelf waiting to be enjoyed.

I always was a fan of Brandi Brandt

Nick, Bob is wise, listen to him.


Cheap brandy is really only good for spiking homemade Sangria, various styles hot mulled wines and adding flavor to cooking/baked dishes.

..oh, and degreasing engine parts.
