First, is the short answer. Brandy is a spirit, distilled from either wine or fermented fruit MASH. Most brandies are aged in wood. in wood. Now, for the long version. The process starts by taking freshly picked grapes and they are taken to be pressed. The grape is pressed allowing the juice to be released. The juice, skins, pips and seeds are allowed to ferment in a vat and all these parts of the grapes must remain with the fermenting juice in order to give the finished product its full character. The fermented juice is then moved into stills or alembics where distillation begins. Distillation takes place in a boiler which is heated by either a coal or wood fire. At the top of the boiler is a metal hood used to collect the vapors produced from the fermented juice put into the boiler. The vapors continue up a condesed coil surrounded by cold water. The vapors are now in liquid form and drips out into a pan.
