To celebrate the 2020 festive season, Maison Martell have partnered up with three international artists, who have each re-created one of Martell’s most iconic products as part of a limited edition Christmas collection.

Renowned for his exquisitely detailed designs which fuse references to ancestral craft techniques with contemporary visual codes, artist and ornamentist Pierre Marie reinterpreted one of Maison Martell’s most iconic offerings; Cordon Bleu.

Since its creation in 1912, Martell Cordon Bleu has earned itself an inspiring reputation as a Cognac firm favorite amongst connoisseurs. Its distinctive taste, characterised by a predominance of eaux-de-vie from the Borderies, and its timeless bottle design make it an unrivalled classic in the world of Cognac.

Presentation of the bottle

“The vision of the barrels of cognac travelling around the world to far-flung destinations inspired me.”

The design, entitled The Epic Voyage, illustrates the subsequent journey of the vine and the oak around the world. Expressed through motifs of ships, trains and hot-air balloons and include illustrations of red and gold clouds - a traditional Chinese symbol of good fortune. While the Cognac inside boasts multiple gold medal awards, the stunning decanter designed by Pierre Marie is considered as a work of art in its own right. This limited edition is sure to take centre stage amidst even the most extended of Cognac collections.
