How to CHOOSE

and DRINK BRANDY

That misused term "soft as milk" is so often applied to the dead flavour and musty perfume which is the sign, af, a common, or "doctor, ed" brandy. It is that clean taste, that brilliancy and livetingss of Bouquet and flavour which characterises a high class cognac.

Brandy should have "body," that is to say, unlike the majority of spirits, which caute a harsh and short-lived, burning sen sation on the tongue, Its favour should expand and linger de. lightfully on the palate.
