VERY ELEGANT COGNAC FROM REMY MARTIN CELEBRATING XO QUALITY: CENTAURE

In 2011, Cellar Master Pierrette Trichet, Remy's  previous cellar master, created the Centaure as a cognac that reflects the house style: human, sincere, confident, and natural without ostentation. 
This cognac bears the name of the symbol of Rémy Martin, the centaur, half man, half horse.
