I figured out how whiskey is different and I know that cognac is a type of brandy. What other kinds of liquor are a type of brandy?

Pisco was the other type that I recognized, but it appears that brandy is broken into 3 categories: grape, fruit, and pomace.

The only difference is that Cognac is brandy produced INSIDE of region of Cognac in France. All brandies produced outside of Cognac can only be labeled brandy. No other difference.
