Remy Cointreau Global Travel Retail will present a new coffret for Louis XIII de Remy Martin Cognac at next month’s TFWA World Exhibition.

Inspired by Art Deco, it features a hand-crafted red imitation leather and dark wood case, with a multifaceted mirror inside that reflects the luminosity of the spirit, and displays the iconic crystal stopper in place.

The spirit itself is presented in a baroque crystal decanter with an iconic fleur-de-lys stopper.

Singapore was crowned Asia’s Maritime Capital at the fifth edition of the Asia Boating Awards, held at the prestigious Le Royal Meridien Hotel in Shanghai.

This is the second time the Lion City has been awarded the sought-after accolade – last year’s prize went to Qingdao, China.

The award recognises the tremendous effort that has been put into turning that city into a sailing and boating hub.

French designer Christophe Pillet has designed a contemporary set to accompany Remy Martin’s top class cognac Louis XIII. This collaboration is, according to Remy Martin, a way to pay homage to the heritage and artistry of the high-quality cognac.

Pillet is well known as a furniture designer and has worked with Philippe Starck and brands like Zanotta, Cappellini, Tacchini and Pallucco.
