The house was founded in 1724 by Rémy Martin, a local winegrower who began producing cognac from grapes grown in the prestigious Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne crus. Rémy Martin’s production approach centers on using only eaux-de-vie sourced from these two top-quality crus, which are known for their chalky soils and ability to produce spirits with exceptional aging potential. The company employs traditional distillation methods using copper pot stills and ages its cognacs exclusively in French Limousin oak barrels to develop complex aromas and flavors.Beyond its flagship Fine Champagne Cognacs such as VSOP, XO, and Louis XIII, Rémy Martin’s portfolio includes limited edition releases and collaborations with artists or luxury brands. The producer also offers single estate expressions that highlight specific vineyard terroirs within Grande Champagne. While primarily focused on cognac, Rémy Cointreau—the parent company—manages other spirit brands including liqueurs like Cointreau orange liqueur and Mount Gay rum from Barbados. This broader selection allows Rémy Martin to appeal to connoisseurs interested not only in aged grape-based spirits but also premium rums and artisanal liqueurs crafted with a similar dedication to quality and heritage.
