That is true. But it is an interesting post with some interesting
responses. Is peach brandy made from a fermented fruit mash or is it a
flavored brandy?

"Store bought" peach brandy is a distillate, hopefully from grapes, but in
many cases doubtfully, flavored after distillation with the occasional
peach, peach extracts and in some cases artificial flavoring agents.

Slivovic' by whatever spelling was in the past made from distilling plum
mash.

Some of the better grappas in Italy were made with the leftovers from
pressings for white wine, skins, pulp, twigs, leaves, the occasional bunion,
and a fungal toenail or two lost in the stomping.



Yuk!
