Hunter'sChbutteur sauce...Do you add brandy

Are you a add brandy kinda hunter's sauce maker? See recipes.

While in the chatroom last night this came up and nobody seemed to have a definative answer.... Wine no wine, brandy no brandy? I lean more towards the adding Irish Whiskey in lieu of brandy.

Chbutteur Sauce

6 medium Mushrooms 15g (1-2 oz) Butter 25g (1 oz) Shallots 300ml (1-2 pint) White Wine 300ml (1-2 pint) Stock (I'd use beef stock) 150ml (1-4 pint) Tomato Sauce 2 tbsp Brandy 1 tbsp Parsley

Finely chop or mince the mushrooms and shallots. Place the butter in a saucepan and add the shallots, fry gently for 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and fry until lightly browned. Add the wine, stock, tomato sauce and brandy, bring to the boil and simmer uncovered for 5 minutes. Add the chopped parsley before serving.
