A Limited Edition bottle in the style of the original bottle, released in 2015 to celebrate Martell's tricentenary.

Created in 1912 by Edouard Martell, Cordon Bleu was first launched at the renowned Hôtel de Paris in Monaco. It was the first post-phylloxera cognac to be released by Martell and is something of a flagship for the brand, characterising the ‘typical’ house style of Martell Cognac.
