Louis XIII Time Collection: Tribute to City of Lights – 1900

Tribute to City of Lights 1900 is the second edition in our exclusive Time Collection, a series of limited-edition LOUIS XIII decanters commemorating the year that LOUIS XIII cognac was unveiled at the famous Paris World Fair.

The cognac inside our limited-edition Tribute to City of Lights 1900 decanter is made from a unique blend of the finest and most precious eaux-de-vie from grapes grown in the exceptional terroir of Cognac Grande Champagne. The specially selected eaux-de-vie are aged slowly in Limousin oak casks called tierons before being expertly blended to create our signature cognac. Containing aged eaux-de-vie, each one carefully watched over by generations of Cellar Master, every drop of LOUIS XIII cognac represents decades of craftsmanship and know-how, resulting in a unique taste of time that will be similar in the next century.

The LOUIS XIII City of Lights 1900 special edition is presented in a limited series of 2,000 numbered decanters. The decanter is based on the distinctive design, inspired by a 16th-century flask uncovered from the site of the Battle of Jarnac, and later owned by LOUIS XIII founder, Paul-mile Rmy Martin.

Hand crafted by skilled artisans, the City of Lights 1900 decanter features 13 dentelle spikes rather than the usual 10, seven fleur-de-lys in 18ct gold and a central medallion. A limited-edition stopper takes the form of an upturned decanter, and incorporates NFC technology that allows you to register your decanter with the LOUIS XIII Society, and receive a unique numbered medal minted by the Monnaie de Paris.
