L’Or de Jean Martell Zodiac Edition – Assemblage du Serpent

To mark the 2025 Year of the Snake, Maison Martell introduces the L’Or de Jean Martell Zodiac Edition – Assemblage du Serpent. Drawing inspiration from the Chinese goddess Nüwa and the snake, symbols of courage and wisdom, this masterpiece showcases over 1,400 eaux-de-vie skillfully blended by Cellar Master Christophe Valtaud.

Encased in a crystal decanter and dazzling cabinet, the limited-edition release comprises just 500 individually numbered pieces. The blend is a sensory journey, beginning with citrus and spices, progressing to tobacco, candied fruit, blackcurrant, and quince, and concluding with a velvety, woody finish enhanced by tonka bean notes.

In celebration of its 130-year legacy in Malaysia, the Martell Cordon Bleu x Ivan Lam limited edition features a design blending Malaysian and French heritage.
