[quote=Anonymous]I read a lot of English books and books set 50+ years ago and I feel like brandy was a bigger thing in the past. Do people still drink it? Cook with it? What is considered a decent affordable brandy? Examples: - those giant brandy snifters and then the added accessory of the candle warmer - it just seems so 1950s/retro - In an early chapter of All Creatures Great and Small James thinks he is offered a drink after a difficult procedure and fantasizes it's a cup of sweet tea laced with brandy - 1930s cozy mystery British book series the heroine constantly is offered a shot of brandy after a difficult experience - after being out on the windswept moors/in a driving rainstorm people offered brandy to warm them up - flambeed desserts with brandy etc etc. I have never been offered brandy in my life. Bourbon, yes. Brandy, no. Am I missing out? [/quote]
