Theoretically, anything *can* be served warmed, but with beverages, specifically alcoholic ones, there is a big difference between serving it warm (unchilled) or warmed, (heated). Cognac does have an ettiquete attached to it that you should hold the glass for a little to warm it slightly above room temparature, but it should not be heated. Higher end alcholols, and a number of cognacs are commonly viewed to be in that family, if still in the middle of the spectrum quality-wise when it comes to whiskey (or whisky depending on which you are referring to) are mostly served "neat", which is simply the alcohol in a glass. Chilling alcohol usually dilutes the taste of a higher quality product at the benefit of making it easier to drink and it thus not commonly done. Cognac can be chilled, It is most commonly served warm (room temparature), but the "warming" from the heat your hand gives the glass is supposed to enhance the flavor to its full potential.

Do you drink champagne cognac chilled?

I think please review the question. Are you asking for champagne or cognac??? Champagne is served chilled whereas cognac is served at room temperature(if drinking neat) or served alongwith warm water. Actually, I believe s/he is asking about fine champagne, which is a type of cognac. You can drink fine champagne either at room temperature or chilled - I personally would recommend chilled.


We own a Pierre Ferrand Champagne Cognac how does one enjoy champagne cognac?

A good cognac like ferrand should be served at ot near body tempurature in either a cognac snifter (aka "balloon"), or in a white wine glass. There are various methods and devices for warming the cognac once poured into the glass, but if u dont have access to such a device, hold the glass in both hands so your hands warm the cognac through the glass. Usually enjoyed after a fine meal, with a fine cigar if preferred.
