ABOUT MAISON MARTELL
The story of the oldest of the great cognac houses began more than three centuries ago, in 1715, when Jean Martell, an Englishman from Jersey in the Channel Islands, settled in Cognac and founded Maison Martell. He was just 21.
Since the creation of the Maison, Martell has established itself as a beacon of excellence and sophistication in the world of cognac. At the heart of Martell’s success lies its unwavering commitment to savoir-faire, encapsulated in the ethos “Only the best, without artifice”.
