Armagnac
Here's the thing you need to know about Armagnac—don't ever call it Cognac.
While both fall under the category of Brandy, this distilled Wine distinguishes itself on one primary point: location.
Armagnac hails from the Armagnac region in Gascony, France, and is largely distilled using alembic continuous stills. It's higher in alcohol than Cognac, too.
Helluva selling point there.
