Description

Martell is a renowned producer of cognac, with a history dating back to 1715. The company was founded by Jean Martell, who was originally from Jersey, and who moved to France to establish his business. Martell is one of the oldest and most respected cognac houses in the world, and its products are known for their exceptional quality and complexity.

Martell XO is a premium cognac that is aged for a minimum of 10 years in oak barrels. The blend is made up of eaux-de-vie from the four main cognac regions of France: Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies, and Fins Bois. The result is a rich and complex cognac with a deep amber color and a bouquet of dried fruit, vanilla, and oak.

The taste of Martell XO is smooth and velvety, with notes of honey, caramel, and spice. The finish is long and satisfying, with a hint of oak and a touch of sweetness. This cognac is best enjoyed neat or on the rocks, and is the perfect accompaniment to a fine cigar or a rich dessert.

Martell is committed to sustainable production practices, and works closely with local farmers to ensure that its grapes are grown in an environmentally responsible manner. The company also supports local communities through a range of social and cultural initiatives, and is dedicated to preserving the rich heritage of the cognac region.

Overall, Martell XO is a superb example of the art of cognac-making, and is sure to delight even the most discerning connoisseur. Whether enjoyed on its own or as part of a sophisticated cocktail, this cognac is a true masterpiece of the distiller's art.

Tasting notes

With its bold design and intense taste, Martell XO is an expression of the audacious spirit of Maison Martell. Golden amber with dark copper and mahogany highlights. On the nose a piquant, spicy sensation with notes of black and pink pepper and coriander, rounded out by rich aromas of fig, walnut and sandalwood. Intense flavours of fig, red fruit and blackcurrant bud give full expression to the power and finesse of eaux-de-vie from Grande Champagne, leading into an exceptionally long and robust finish.

Martell XO is instantly identifiable for its intense taste and daring, contemporary design. A prestigious blend of Grande Champagne and Borderies eaux-de-vie, this cognac has a bold and charismatic personality, which is reflected in the striking arch of its bottle.
