Apparently there isn't a cognac thread yet, which surprises me.
I've only had cognac once, and it was sublime. But it was a dusty old bottle of 50 year old Napoleon cognac that my grandpa gave my dad 20 years ago. I don't think I can walk over to the store and pick that up.
What are people's favorites? What is a good "everyday" brand?
As I understand, cognac (and armagnac) are types of brandy made in Cognac and Armagnac. What other brandies are similar/good?
