Why is the 50-year-old cognac named "Louis XIII"?

In the 13th period of Louis (16 10- 1643), the remy martin family created the precious cognac (wine brandy) as a tribute in the French cognac region.

1640, cognac was authorized for the first time as a special tax in Louis XIII era, so King Louis XIII was called "the patron saint of cognac".

In about 1850, a Renaissance Baroque bottle engraved with royal lilies was accidentally discovered on the ancient battlefield of Louis XIII near Jarnac. Paul Emile, the son of the third generation of remy martin family, considered its commercial value, bought the bottle and applied for a patent for reproduction.

In 1874, the copied wine bottle was named Louis XIII, which was specially used to hold the oldest and most expensive cognac of the company.
