According to Rémy Martin's website, this product is "the highest quality cognac on the market today." Louis XIII cognac is manufactured using grapes from the Grande Champagne of Cognac. It is blended from eaux de vie, some more than a century in age, then it is aged in "tiercons," barrels that are several hundred years old, in its own cellar. Generally this product is regarded as one of the finest brandies in the world.

Among the notable figures Rémy Martin boasts as fans of this cognac are early 20th century French fashion designer Christian Dior, singer/songwriter Elton John, United Kingdom monarch Queen Elizabeth II, and World War II British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. This exclusive brandy featured in the cult movie 'Cocktail' staring actor 'Tom Cruise'.

A bottle of Louis XIII may be priced as high as $2,000(US) however average price range is between $1,000 to $1,300. The handblown crystal decanter (by Baccarat) alone sells for approximately $100.[1] The limited edition 'Spectaculaire' comes in a decanter embedded with a diamond, ranging from 4 to 4,75 carat (800 to 950 mg). The company recommends dealers to sell the limited edition for circa $43,800.

A true baller would have bought two, one to adorn his living room crystal cabinet and one to drink / share with girls at his pad......


I mean what good is liquor if you can't drink it?

Would be nice to sell it later, that's true... would be even nicer to accurately describe the taste when selling it, and dying knowing how a masterpiece tasted like...

We paid $1000 for 5 bottles when we had the liquor store. Sold them for $1700 each and gave one to a family friend.

My uncle had one in England it was half empty though so my dad and his friends drank it there.
