Martingale Batch 0002 is a Rare Reserve Cognac blended from four of the most sought-after crus with a notable Borderies content, bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV) in a 375ml bottle.
Martingale, the French word for doubling down, is the first-ever product release of a 100-year-old renowned Cognac producer: a family-made Cognac custom-made for a new generation. As a Rare Reserve it sits apart from other Cognacs, older than a VSOP and younger than an XO. It is made without additives like boisé, for a fresher, brighter profile. Batch 0002 introduces the smaller 375ml bottle following the inaugural Batch 0001.
Fresh, fragrant and refined, it pairs the nuanced structure of a great whisky with the fragrant aroma of a fine wine.
The sculpted bottle makes it an elegant gift.
Cognac must be made from white grapes grown in the Cognac region of France, double distilled in copper pot stills and aged in French oak, with age categories such as VSOP and XO describing the minimum age of the youngest brandy in the blend.
Borderies is the smallest Cognac cru, prized for floral, nutty eaux-de-vie.
Cognac must be distilled twice in copper pot stills.
The 375ml size is perfect for trying something new.
It pairs with dark chocolate, dried fruit and aged cheese.
It is a stylish gift for whisky drinkers curious about Cognac.
Warm the glass in your hand to open the aromas.
