In 1724 Rémy Martin, a winegrower in the Cognac region of France, created the brand of the same name. All of the grapes used to produce its cognacs come exclusively from the two top growths in the region, Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne. Of these exceptional cognacs, Louis XIII, created in 1874, became the house's iconic bottling. Produced from a blend of 1,200 cognacs aged in Limousin oak casks, Louis XII reveals incredible aromatic finesse. Over the years, Rémy Martin cognac established itself in the luxury industry with products that were increasingly upmarket.

Rémy Martin XO Excellence is a cognac made with grapes grown in Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne (85% and 15% respectively). The eaux-de-vie were aged for 10 to 37 years.
