Remy Martin 1738

Rémy Martin uses a distinctive production method where yeast cells naturally die off and settle at the bottom of fermentation tanks, and unlike other distillers, Rémy Martin leaves some of these cells in during the distillation process. The cognac is aged in new French oak casks that were toasted using a long and soft heating process, resulting in exceptionally oaky and smooth characteristics. The 1738 is bottled at 40% ABV with no age statement, but contains a blend of eaux-de-vie aged between 4 and 20 years old, with an average age of 12 years. The nose presents generous notes of plum and fig marmalade rounded out by intense oaky notes of toffee and toasted bread, while the palate reveals the mellowness of butterscotch and baked spices with hints of dark chocolate, finishing exceptionally round with a creamy aftertaste and concentrated nutty aromas.
