Description
Martell Blue Swift 700ml is a VSOP-aged eau-de-vie from the Martell cognac house, finished in casks that previously held Kentucky bourbon. Because of that bourbon cask finish, it is labelled as a spirit drink rather than a cognac, but it starts life as Martell VSOP made in the Cognac region of France.

Sip it neat or over a large ice cube, or use it in place of whiskey in an Old Fashioned or a Sidecar. It also makes a good highball with ginger ale, and pairs well with barbecued meats, pecan pie or salted caramel desserts.
- VSOP-aged eau-de-vie from Martell, France
- Finished in Kentucky bourbon casks
- Named after the swift, Martell’s emblem
Martell describes a nose of banana and caramelised pear, then vanilla, coconut, spice and a touch of menthol. The palate is soft and round with ginger and candied plum, and the bourbon casks bring a long, toasted oak finish.
A good pick for bourbon drinkers curious about French brandy, or cognac fans after a sweeter, oak-led style.
