American BrandyProduced in the US, this is usually referring to brandy distilled from grape-based wine. If the producer uses other fruit, it must be stated on the label. If aged under two years in oak, it must state the word "immature" on the label. Beyond that, labels such as VS, VSOP, and XO mean little as the brands themselves dictate what that means to them.

Tasting Notes
"Lemon kicks off a fruity and floral nose. The body has a somewhat watery mouthfeel, though the flavors carry through regardless, with a range of fruits including grapefruit and pomelo, and those sugary orange slice gummies. There's also a bit of pepper, alongside lavender, and vegetal notes. Very smooth all the way through with just a touch of heat on the back of the finish."
