Thanks to an NFC-enabled cork stopper, cognac owners are able to verify their ownership of the limited-edition piece and access membership benefits to the private club. Just 200 of the handmade N°XIII decanters are set to be released worldwide as part of tasting rituals at [exclusive nightclubs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-xiii-transforms). Customers can apply to be part of these experiences but as the brand expresses, "The experience is so exclusive that there is a greater chance of being accepted on a space mission." The entire experience is elevated with six bespoke crystal glasses in a coordinating crimson shade with fleur-de-lys details. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.8/10 - Popularity: 72% | Activity: 62% | Freshness: 10% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Nfc-enabled Decanters:** The use of NFC technology in decanters can enhance customer experience and create a unique selling point for luxury brands. - **Membership-exclusive Clubs:** Creating exclusive clubs based on brand loyalty can strengthen customer relationships and create an additional revenue stream for luxury brands. - **Handmade Limited-edition Products:** Manufacturing limited-edition products creates a sense of exclusivity and can increase the perceived value of luxury brands. ### Where This Applies - **Luxury Spirits Industry:** The luxury spirits industry can benefit from incorporating NFC technology and membership clubs to create high-end experiences for customers. - **Crystal Glassware Industry:** The crystal glassware industry can partner with luxury liquor brands to provide bespoke glasses that match the aesthetic of the drink and enhance the luxury experience. - **Nightclub Industry:** Exclusive nightclubs can benefit from partnering with luxury brands to offer one-of-a-kind tasting experiences to their most loyal customers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [NFC-Enabled Whiskey Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/one-cask-at-a-time.md) - [Luxurious Limited-Edition Coffrets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-xiii-classic-decanter.md) - [Miniature Cognac Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-drop-by-louis-xiii.md) - [Limited Crystal Cognac](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/505-edition-branson.md) - [Luxurious Heritage-Honoring Decanters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lunar-new-year-coffret.md) - [Exclusive Cognac NFTs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hennessy-nfts.md) - [AI-Generated Cognac Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/usher-x-1738-ai-powered.md) - [Luxurious Nighttime Cognacs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nighttime-cognac.md) - [Smart Tequila Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-tequila-bottle.md)
