For instance, did you know that Remy Martin Extra Old (XO) you are enjoying today was made in 1981? While whiskey is made in a barney and is originally from Scotland, cognac is made from white grapes, in a region called Cognac in France. By law in France, a spirit cannot be called a cognac until it is aged for a minimum of two years. Premium Cognac, such as Remy Martin XO, is popular with the super-rich. Cognac can also be paired with different foods, such as Roquefort and aged parmesan cheeses and chocolates.
