Martell VS Single Distillery Cognac

Martell VS Single Distillery is a genuinely innovative take on entry-level Cognac from the oldest Cognac house in France — and one that takes a page directly from the world of single malt Scotch whisky. While most Cognac is a blend of eaux-de-vie from dozens of tiny distilleries across the region, Martell VS Single Distillery marries spirits from a single distillation source in the Cognac region — offering a richer, more intense expression of the Martell distillation style. Founded in 1715 by Jean Martell, the house distinguishes itself by distilling only clear wines free of lees, using fine-grained oak barrels from cooler French forests, and emphasizing a significant proportion of Cognacs from the Borderies sub-zone — renowned for providing eaux-de-vie with a distinctive smooth and floral expression. A clean and pure Cognac with mid body featuring delicate notes of honey, blond caramel, grapes, quince, pear, peach flower, and blond tobacco — youthful and vibrant with apples, pears, and floral character on the nose, and a slightly sweet, citrusy palate that doesn't seem overdosed with sugar like many entry-level Cognacs. A genuinely accessible introduction to the Martell house style. Sip neat, over ice, or as the base for a classic Sidecar or Cognac Sour.
