L'Or de Jean Martell is the quintessence of the Martell house since its creation in 1715.
A blend of several hundred eaux-de-vie, some of which have aged over a century like hidden treasure deep in the house's cellars, L'Or de Jean Martell is the culmination of the house style. The decanter, true jewel, blown and decorated by hand, is the fruit of the unique knowledge and skill of the master crytal makers at Cristal de Sèvres. Its timeless form encapsulates the excellence for which the House of Martell stands.

Tasting Notes:
Colour: an intense amber with hints of shimmering mahogany.
Nose: elegance and complexity of its aromas: orange peel and prune, with hints of cinnamon, cumin and gingerbread. When swirled, there follow venerable notes of Oriental forest: myrrh, agar wood, rancio, dry walnut.
Taste: at first, smooth and subtle. Then the flavours develop and the aroma, punctuated with notes of blackcurrant, rancio and dried fruits, becomes full-bodied and intense.
The tasting culminates with an extraordinary cascade of notes of bitter orange peel, prune, spices, and gingerbread. Beautifully long finish.
