Remy Martin is a French cognac house founded in 1724 by Remy Martin, a winegrower in the Cognac region of southwestern France. The house is distinguished by its exclusive use of eaux-de-vie from the two premier growing areas within the Cognac appellation: Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne. This focus on Fine Champagne cognac, a legally defined designation requiring at least 50 percent Grande Champagne with the balance from Petite Champagne, sets Remy Martin apart from producers that source from all six cognac growing areas.

The house's portfolio spans the full classification spectrum. Remy Martin V.S.O.P, recognizable by its frosted bottle, is one of the best-selling V.S.O.P cognacs globally. The 1738 Accord Royal, named for the year King Louis XV granted the Remy Martin estate the right to plant new vines, occupies a position between V.S.O.P and X.O. Remy Martin X.O features eaux-de-vie aged up to 25 years, and the house also produces the ultra-prestige Louis XIII expression, which is marketed as a separate brand.

Remy Martin is owned by Remy Cointreau, a publicly traded French spirits group listed on Euronext Paris. The company is headquartered in Cognac. The house maintains its own cooperage and aging cellars, where thousands of oak barrels hold eaux-de-vie in various stages of maturation. The Cellar Master oversees the blending process, selecting from the house's reserves to maintain consistency across expressions. V.S.O.P typically retails above $35, with X.O priced above $150.
