"Remy Martin": a name everyone knows
The progenitor of the drink is the Frenchman Remy Martin. He, having worked all his childhood and youth in the vineyards of his father, decided to opena small cognac company (1724). Fortune favored the young craftsman: along with the growing popularity of French alcohol, the authority of his enterprise also grew. After 14 years, Remy received a special award from Louis XV - he allowed him to start growing a new vine. Taking advantage of the favor of the monarch, the company has grown really solid grapes, on the basis of which the first cognac "Remy Martin" was created. The drink was warmly received by the local nobility, and was soon recognized as the best in France. In 1841, the Remy Martin brand was registered by Remy's descendants, and alcohol, originally supplied in flasks, began to be bottled. However, the famous "wrap" with frost was invented much later - in 1972.
