Cognac as quite a strong flavor on it's own. I'm sure it will be delicious with vanilla, but it will definitely limit the number of uses for the extract you get out of it.

Bourbon is an American invention and only made in America. There is no such thing as 'Bourbon Islands' as a name all by itself as the Island became known for the bourbon vanilla. Bourbon Vanilla was named for the bourbon used to make it, which is American Bourbon. Some may make it and use a different alcohol today but the original was only American Bourbon so they called the Island after the whiskey. Even the US government passed a law declaring Bourbon is The USA's official liquor. Madagascar - Bourbon Island, (now called Reunion Island) is in the Indian Ocean off the East Coast of Africa, the process for producing the best vanilla beans in the world now refers to beans grown and cured on Reunion itself and the nearby islands: Madagascar and the Comoros Islands. They used American Bourbon to make Vanilla Extract which is the best in the world, only using Bourbon Whiskey. Do you understand the connection now? Using vodka is a cheap imitation of bourbon whiskey which is the very best.

Vodka will produce a more pure vanilla taste, whereas bourbon will give you an extract that tastes like vanilla and bourbon.
