What Does Brandy Mean?
Brandy is the color of intensity. Across history it has stood for love, courage, danger and celebration all at once. It is the first color most cultures named after black and white, and it remains the strongest attention-grabbing color in the entire visible spectrum. Brandy raises pulse rates, stimulates appetite and creates a sense of urgency, which is why it appears on everything from stop signs to sale banners. In relationships it symbolizes romance and desire; in competition it signals dominance — studies have even shown teams wearing brandy win slightly more often.
