[May 17, 2013] The House of Rémy Martin is proud to release Louis XIII Le Jeroboam - Now available for purchase in British Columbia Tweet VANCOUVER, May 17, 2013, 2013 (Canada NewsWire via COMTEX) -- The House of Rémy Martin is pleased to launch the sale of Louis XIII Le Jeroboam, the only bottle of its kind available for purchase in British Columbia at the flagship 39(th) & Cambie BC Liquor Store. Founded in 1724, Rémy Martin has long been creating luxury cognacs. The creation of Le Jeroboam is the product of expert knowledge, the result of more than a hundred years of ageing and a rare gem from the Cognac region of France. An impressive blend of 1200 eaux-de-vie, this majestic cognac is sure to delight not just the connoisseurs and collectors, but epicureans and curious alike. At $25 000, this limited edition cognac is presented in a 3L format and includes four Pillet crystal glasses, a Pillet shelf display, a pipette and a LOUIS XIII collector's book. A masterpiece addition to the Louis XIII collection, Le Jeroboam is reserved for a privileged few with only 100 carafes existing throughout the world. With a decanter four times larger than a traditional carafe, Le Jeroboam definitely makes an impression. Each Jeroboam bottle is a unique work of art, meticulously crafted by nine crystal master artisans from the Cristallerie de Sèvres. Five kilograms of crystal are selected, blown and shaped to create the signature bottle. It goes without saying that these exquisite decanters are produced with only the most careful attention. "Many people in British Columbia appreciate cognac," said Adele Shaw, the Liquor Distribution Branch's spirits portfolio manager. "It's exciting to be able to obtain a bottle of this prestige and provide our customers with an opportunity to view and potentially purchase this fine cognac." Consumers wishing to learn about and taste this historic blend may purchase tickets to an exclusive seminar lead by LOUIS XIII Brand Ambassador Alexandre Quintin, which will take place from 4:00 to 5:30pm on June 4(th) 2013 at the 39(th) & Cambie BC Liquor Store. Space is very limited and tickets will only be available for purchase at the 39(th) & Cambie location for $50 per ticket, beginning May 17(th), 2013. Starting May 17(th), 2013, interested consumers may express their desire to purchase this carafe of LOUISXIII Le Jeroboam by contacting the Store Manager at the following BC Liquor store locations: Park Royal, Richmond Brighouse, Alberni & Bute and 39th & Cambie.
