Select bottles from Martell's coveted portfolio will be available
across Canada this
Fall
TORONTO, Sept. 7, 2016 /CNW/ - Corby Spirit and Wine is
thrilled to announce the re-introduction of Martell Cognac to the
Canadian market. Known for its elegance and subtlety, this iconic
brand is celebrating over 300 years of heritage.
Martell Cognacs have been enjoyed for centuries the world over -
aboard the Orient Express, on intrepid polar expeditions, at royal
wedding celebrations, on Hollywood
films, and beyond. Martell Cognac takes pride in its rich history,
honouring a craft and taste that has been passed down from
generation to generation through the Martell family.
"We are delighted to bring Martell Cognac back to Canada, where it is renowned for its vibrant
heritage and exceptional quality," says Erika Neudorf, Brand Manager at Corby Spirit and
Wine. "The Martell House was founded in 1715 at the height of
French Art de Vivre, a period of time in which gastronomy and
craftsmanship were celebrated."
Place, precision and time are the three great axes of
Martell craftsmanship; through
unique processes of distillation, ageing, and blending,
Martell's cellar master must offer
a perfect nose, an unparalleled palette and a near magical gift for
alchemy. A celebration of the French Art
de Vivre, or the Art of Living, Martell Cognac adopts
the lifestyle of treasuring the beauty and pleasure of every
moment.
Martell is one of the most
iconic and historic brands owned by global spirit and wine group
Pernod Ricard, whose products are represented in Canada by Corby Spirit and Wine Ltd.
