Brandy Overview of Brandy Brandy is the transliteration of English Brandy. It is a wine made from fruits through fermentation and distillation. Brandy, as it is usually called, specifically refers to wine made from grapes through fermentation and distillation. For wines made with other fruits as raw materials through the same method, the name of the fruit raw material is often added in front of the brandy to distinguish its type. For example, brandy made from cherries is called Cherry Brandy, and brandy made from apples is called Apple Brandy. The word "brandy" is a term equivalent to the Chinese "shochu". Definition: Brandy, originally derived from the Dutch word Brandewijn, means flammable wine. In a narrow sense, it refers to wine with a high degree of alcohol obtained by distillation after fermentation of grapes, and then stored in oak barrels. Brandy is a kind of distilled liquor, which is brewed from fruits through fermentation, distillation and storage. Distilled liquor made from grapes is called grape brandy.
