The cognac was named in tribute to King Louis XIII of France. He was the first monarch to recognize the cognac as it's own category, eaux-de-vie. The final blend is composed of up to 1,200 eaux-de-vie from Grande Champagne vineyards, ranging from 50 to 100 years in age. The rich, chalky soil, produces the finest cognacs in the region. The cognac is aged at least for two years in French Oak casks. Over a century of production, Paul-Emilé Rémy Martin took over the business and began selling the cognac after the family name.
