On this episode, Dan sits down with Charles Braastad, ninth-generation member of the Delamain family and Cellar Master for Delamain Cognac, one of the oldest and most revered houses in the region. They dig into the intricate relationship between time and quality in Cognac, why Delamain works exclusively with Grande Champagne eaux-de-vie, and how climate change is reshaping the ripening curve and acid balance of the Ugni Blanc grapes that form Cognac’s foundation.

Also on the show, Dan shares a few of his all-time favorite celebrity quotes—some hilarious, some profound—and closes the episode with a reading of “Drinking Alone” by former U.S. Poet Laureate Billy Collins.

It’s an episode that pairs perfectly with patience, poetry, and a fine pour of something aged to perfection.
