When it comes to cognac, few names resonate as deeply as Martell. With a history spanning over three centuries, Martell has established itself as a symbol of refinement and tradition. Let's embark on a journey through time, tracing the evolution of this iconic brand.
Founded by Jean Martell in 1715, the House of Martell began its illustrious journey in the town of Cognac, France. Jean, originally from the Channel Island of Jersey, ventured to Cognac to set up his own trading business. Recognizing the potential of the region's wines, he quickly shifted his focus to the art of cognac production. His dedication to selecting only the finest eaux-de-vie and his commitment to quality set the foundation for the brand's enduring legacy. Under his leadership, Martell's cognacs gained rapid popularity, not just in France but also across the English Channel, paving the way for the brand's international acclaim.
