Rémy Martin is a French brand of premium cognac, which was founded in 1724 by E.Rémy Martin in Cognac, France. It is managed by Rémy Cointreau company and is a part of the Comité Colbert, an association of luxury businesses.
Meaning and history
Remy Martin is one of the most popular cognacs in the world, which ranks first in sales, and the homeland of all cognacs, France. The brand is included in the so-called “big four” of the oldest cognac houses. Today Remy Martin exports to more than 160 countries, and it all started in 1724, when Remy Martin, the son of a French winemaker, decided to found his own business.
Already in 1738, the King of France Louis XV gave him the exclusive right to plant new vines, despite the legal restriction of this since 1731. Thus began the rapid rise of the company.
The management of the distillery was inherited within the family. By the middle of the 19th century, Paul Emile Remy Martin, the great-grandson of the brand’s founder, while continuing to sell cognac in casks, began to produce the drink in bottles as well. This was a new milestone in the development of the brand. He also owned the idea of the legendary logo of Remy Martin, the Centaur. On the emblem, half-man half-horse is depicted with a spear over his head. Paul Emile put a special meaning into this symbol. He chose the wisest of the centaurs, Chiron, son of the god Chronos, patron of farmers and the passage of time.
Since 1991, Remy Martin has been part of the Rémy Cointreau Group, which produces champagne, liqueurs, and rum.
