The Italian brandy is generally a bit stronger, more flowery and harder than the French or German brandy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUntil 1948 it was also often traded under the name Cognac. It was not until the same year that a treaty with France decreed the Italian renunciation of this name. The name cognac was replaced by the name brandy. The distillation and also the storage of the Italian brandy correspond to the valid international procedures. The ladder method is used for some very valuable distillates. The brandies of many vintages are stored in a long row of barrels, sorted according to age. Every year a part is taken from the barrel with the oldest stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe freed barrel space is filled with distillate from the second oldest barrel, which in turn gets replenishment from the third oldest barrel and so on.
