Rémy Martin
VSOP Mature Cask Finish Cognac
(0.7l,
40%*)
*please note that the ABV of this bottle may vary
Charente is an historic town in the Aquitaine region of France — smack dab in the middle of the Grand Champagne Cru of Cognac. As Catherine I rose from servant to Czarina of Russia and Pope Benedict XIII was installed in the Vatican, the House of Rémy Martin was founded on the banks of the Charente River nearly three hundred years ago in 1724. They began as a trading house run by Paul-Emile Rémy Martin. Today, it’s one of the world’s largest and best-known Cognac houses with a dozen core offerings and many special releases and limited editions.
Rémy Martin VSOP Mature Cask Finish Cognac is going to be limited to the remaining bottles in stock. Once they are gone, they will be gone… never to return. This fine Cognac starts as the traditional Rémy VSOP that we know and love — 55% Grand Champaign grapes and 45% Petite Champaign grapes, aged from four to twelve years. The difference is that after the various agings are married they are allowed to finish barrels that held Cognac for twenty years. This brings an air of sophistication and elegance to an already amazing Spirit.
Smartass Corner:
In 1927, André Renaud — cellar master at Rémy Martin — created the world’s first VSOP Cognac.

Laws concerning Cognac-making are strict as hell. Only three types of grapes may be used, and they can only be harvested in October; Cognac must be aged for at least two years in barrels made from French oak - and get this, from one of two specific forests! Then, the stills must be of a particular French shape (no, not the baguette shape); and we guess La Marseillaise has to be sung during the entire process.
There are three different qualities of Cognac recognized by law: V.S. (very special), V.S.O.P. (Very Superior Old Pale), and X.O. (Extra Old).
Believe it or not, the French aren’t all that fond of Cognac. In fact, they export nearly 90% of their production.
Cognac, named after the town of Cognac in France, is a variety of brandy (distilled wine). It is only produced in the wine-growing region surrounding this town. Cognac must be made from specified grapes, be twice distilled in copper pot stills, and be aged at least two years in French oak barrels. Most Cognacs are aged considerably longer than the minimum legal requirement.
Cognac is a form of distilled Brandy. For a spirit to be labeled Cognac, it must be made from specified grapes, of which Ugni Blanc is the one most widely used. It must be twice distilled in copper pot stills and aged at least two years in French oak barrels from Limousin or Tronçais.
The French believe it or not, aren’t actually all that fond of Cognac. They export almost 90% of their production.
