A discussion about high-end spirits focuses on a 1952 vintage Armagnac consumed at a recent party. The hosts explain that pure distillation in French products often results in fewer hangovers because they lack "fusel oils"—impurities like butyl and propyl alcohol found in lower-quality spirits. The conversation covers the social and physical effects of aged brandy compared to other alcohols like scotch.

During the Rubicon dinner, the pair ordered a 1900 vintage Armagnac, which led to a dispute with the staff regarding its authenticity. Despite the waiter's claims that the date referred to a solera system, the bottle label confirmed it was distilled in 1900. The segment concludes with a complaint about the waiter pouring the final remnants of the bottle into only one of their glasses.
