Martell Cohiba Cognac 0.7L 43% Aromatic partnership At the time of gentlemen's clubs in the 18th and 19th centuries, it was very common for their members to sit down with a good cigar and an equally good glass of a fine spirit and discuss world events and politics. The Martell Cognac house took up this culture with its Cohiba Cognac when they developed this spirit. Because a cigar needs an equal partner that is neither too soft nor too strong. It has to be the perfect blend so that no partner is too dominant in terms of taste and ultimately the cognac should of course also be convincing on its own. Only the best The Martell distillery, founded in 1715, is one of the oldest cognac producers in all of France. The company has been run from generation to generation with all the expertise and tradition that makes the products so unique. The terroir from which Martell sources its grapes plays a large part in the taste and therefore the success of the brandy. The large Cognac wine region in the southwest of France is divided into six large regions, all of which have different conditions for growing grapes. Due to its proximity to the Atlantic, Cognac has a very advantageous mild climate and the right geological subsoil. The most famous and most valued area is the Grand Champagne, where the Borderies terroir is located, and it is precisely from these famous and unique locations that Martell sources the grapes for the wine, which is later distilled into cognac in the old, large copper stills. Taste of the terroir The spirits made from the grapes of this Borderies terroir all have a special, very floral aroma, and the Martell cellar masters chose a few barrels of individual cognacs in a strict selection process, which they carefully blended to create this Cohiba. The result is a blend that boasts extravagant, fine notes of dried flowers. It is gentle, but still has a solid character of gentle fruits and spices, in other words a wonderful cognac that can of course also be enjoyed without a cigar.
