The House of Rémy Martin boasts Rémy V — a modern white spirit distilled from 100% French grapes and bottled at 35% alcohol by volume.
Rémy V represents a departure from the brand's traditional cognac heritage into the contemporary spirits market. The crystal clear and naturally smooth spirit crafted through traditional distillation on the lees in copper pot stills, which results in a bright and expressive profile with notes of fresh fruit, rose, violet, and a hint of citrus and mint.
The House of Rémy Martin's modern white spirit is designed to appeal to a new generation of drinkers who value authenticity and self-expression. The launch is accompanied by a campaign called 'it's V you' in partnership with creator Tefi Pessoa, who embodies the playful and confident energy that the brand hopes to associate with the product.
