The Martell Cognac XO Exclusive Tricentenaire Edition is a special edition created to celebrate 300 years of Martell. This Cognac is truly a visual masterpiece. Inside the bottle, you'll find Martell's characteristic XO blend, composed mainly of Grande Champagne and Borderies eaux-de-vie. Aged for an average of 15 to 35 years, this Cognac Extra Vieux has always attracted attention thanks to its unique crescent-shaped decanter. It is a true work of blending art, offering exceptional notes of maturity and a long finish that is only achieved with time.
Martell, the oldest of the great Cognac houses, celebrated its 300th anniversary in 2015. Founded by Jean Martell at the age of just 21, this family-run house and company was established on the banks of the Charente, where it remains today. Martell cognac has always appealed to lovers of refined tastes, counting among its admirers such luminaries as George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Napoleon Bonaparte, Tsar Nicholas II and Winston Churchill. A prestigious company for such a noble brand.
Martell XO's classic bow-shaped design has been enhanced by a magnificent pearlescent coating embellished with chrome details. A metal plate on the front pays tribute to the 300th anniversary, as does the box in which the bottle is presented. This bottle will certainly not go unnoticed.
This Cognac, aged with extraordinary care, deserves your full attention. Serve it neat in tulip-shaped glasses at room temperature and let it rest for 30 seconds before taking your first sip. It's perfect as a digestif or with rich desserts.
This edition is the 700 ml version without the Montre bottle, as shown above.
