About the Producer:
Rémy Martin is the embodiment of Cognac Fine Champagne: the grapes of two prestigious growth areas of Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne provide eaux-de-vie with great ageing potential. 
For 300 years, the House has pursued one ambition: to reveal the talents of nature and humankind through its quest to capture the very quintessence of cognac. The unique aromatic richness of our House style, being fruitforward, rich, smooth and a long finish, is the result of the selection of these two crus, the traditional distillation on the lees in small copper pot stills, the ageing in large grained oak barrels and the outstanding craftsmanship of the Cellar Master.
