Top Reasons to Consider Drinking Cognac

JournalTop Reasons to Consider Drinking Cognac

The twice-distilled French liquor popularly known as Cognac has gained eager devotees and has slowly gone from spirit you might notice when staring at the dessert menu, to something more drinkers are now ordering when they’re early to dinner and want to unwind. Cognac, it seems is finally having its moment in Singapore.

But have you ever thought about taking Martell or any other type of cognac. Since the turn of the millennium, Cognac’s sales have sky-rocketed. Partly in tandem with the exponential growth in wine consumption and partly due to the evolution of eye-catching packaging and through the development of the cocktail market.

So, why should you be drinking cognac? Read on below to find out more before ordering a bottle of Martell.

Evokes a Bygone Era

Similar to the best spirits you can find on the market, the entrancing effect of Cognac tends to evoke a bygone era. Actually, its fans are highly prone to fawning over the sensitivity of the region’s white grapes. As with whiskey, age factors into which Cognac is used where. You can sip older vintages alone on the rocks, while bright young ones can be mixed into cocktails.

As for cooks, it can add smoke to cream sauced, such as those that bind porcini to pass. Less aged Cognac barring the distinctions “VS” (Very Special) and “VSOP (Very Special or Superior Old Pale) offer notes of pear and apple, while older “XO” (Extra Old or “Napoleon”) barrels bring spice, wood, and leather to the tongue quicker than a face-first fall onto your barstool.

Health Benefits

You can never downplay the sheer fact that you can enjoy a host of health benefits when you drink Martell moderately. The health benefits of drinking Cognac reach beyond the heart though. Cognac can help reduce the risk of Type 2 diabetes and gallstones, as long as you consume only moderate amounts.

We insist on moderate amount, but what does that really mean?  For women, that narrows to one drink per day and for men it is two drinks per day. When you pour it, measure out 10 grams of alcohol, which is less than one whole drink.

An important note to take home is that Cognac is similar to wine in that it is also created from grapes and for this reason is rick in polyphenol, which is found in grapes.
