Cognac comes from the county of "Cognac" in France. If it's made in somewhere else, then it is not Cognac at all.
It is being kept in oak barrels for many years where it will get better tasting and get's it red-brown color.
Years in the barrel:
2 - *****, VS, Sélection, de Luxe
4 - VSOP, VO, Réserve, Vieux
6 - Napoleon, XO, Extra, Royal, Imperial
If your cognac is 20 years old, it still might be XO for example. That is only the minimal requirement.
Cognac DOES NOT get better in the bottle any more, only the years in the oak barrel do matter.

Get the cognivulation mug."Cogging" and its derivatives (cog, cogger) relate to the use(s) of the term "Pog" and their usage on the internet, namely Twitch chat. Cogging is the antithesis of pogging - it carries an overwhelmingly negative connotation with it. The Super Smash Bros. Melee scene has appropriated the terms and use them especially to describe a player's actions both in the game and in real life.
~To quickly describe "Pog/Pogging" (see Poggers also)~
To 'pog' in or out of game means to do something: hype, cool, crazy, etc. Essentially something one likes/appreciates. A person can "pog out" on somebody in-game, have a "pog" combo, or just be "pogging" in general.
~~~COGGING IS THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF THIS~~~
Someone cogging (a cogger) is doing something that is generally viewed as annoying, disruptive, idiotic, or just generally disapproved of. Someone with a purely campy playstyle in Melee would be considered a cogger both by observable definition and virtue as a person. And, it's also important to distinguish the fact that a person can POG in-game yet COG miserably IRL. If you see your gamer friends cogging, as a friend it's your job to point it out to them.
