The perfect gift for mother's day

The art of the perfect gift

Seeking a gift for the woman who has everything? For mothers’ day, a wife or partner’s birthday, or any other special moment, a bottle of cognac always makes for a unique gift idea.

Each Martell cognac has its own distinct flavour, style and character. It is also a very versatile spirit, enjoyed neat, on ice, in cocktails or otherwise, at any given moment. Simply put, there’s a cognac for everyone, and every occasion.

To make the act of giving even more special, a gift set can be personalised to truly impress that special someone. Create your own Martell cognac gift set to include other essentials to elevate the experience of enjoying cognac, be that a crystal decanter, cocktail-making kit, or glassware that captures a cognac’s unique aromas.

Part of cognac’s allure is the fact it is only produced in the small region of southwest France that bears its name. From this legendary terroir, grapes are cultivated from within six exceptional crus. Maison Martell then applies its savoir-faire handed down through nine generations to create cognacs that challenge conventions and redefine expectations.

To make it easier to understand the nuances between Martell cognacs, consider its range across three separate categories. Signature cognacs are home to Martell’s permanent collection, from the rich, fruity and harmonious Martell VS, through to its excellent XO and XXO blends.

Its limited edition cognacs come wrapped in exclusive designs from world-renowned artists. For someone who loves art as much as cognac, Martell’s limited edition range would be an ideal place to start.

Then there is its range of rare cognacs, where one finds only Martell’s rarest, most exceptional blends. These masterpieces are created under the watchful eye of Cellar Master Christophe Valtaud from Martell’s vast collection of eaux-de-vie, some of which date centuries.

Gift-finder tool

When choosing your gift, keep in mind the most expensive cognac need not be the most suited for your occasion.  Rather, the best cognac to buy is one that reflects the personal tastes of the person to whom it is offered.

For this reason, Martell makes available a special gift-finder tool. Designed with simplicity in mind, the gift finder requires only a minimum of information to make a recommendation that fits your gift recipient’s taste, personality, and occasion – and your budget.
