FOR THE COGNAC COLLECTOR

The LOUIS XIII Classic decanter has remained the ultimate expression of the finest eaux-de-vie blend since 1874, containing up to 1,200 eaux-de-vie from Grande Champagne terroir. Handcrafted by skilled artisans from the finest European crystal houses, each decanter is individually numbered and unique. The distinctive design, featuring a 20-carat gold neck and 10 distinctive spikes on each side, is inspired by a 16th-century flask uncovered from the site of the Battle of Jarnac, France, and later owned by LOUIS XIII founder, Paul-Émile Rémy Martin. drizly.com

Mount Gay Rum has released a new limited-edition blend, Master Blender Collection: The Port Cask Expression. The third limited-edition in the exclusive series, and the second blend in the series by the Distillery’s first female Master Blender, Trudiann Branker, Port Cask pushes the boundaries of rum-making by incorporating the use of Tawny Port casks for the first time in Mount Gay’s history. The result, a beautiful complex blend that is in line with the signature Mount Gay Rum profile, but with a twist with cherry, dried fruit, oak, prune and almond on the palate. www.caskers.com
