Its rich, complex flavors and smooth texture make it an ideal base for a wide range of cocktails, from timeless classics to bold, experimental creations.

By incorporating classic cognac into modern recipes, bartenders can elevate their cocktails, offering a sophisticated and refined touch that resonates with discerning drinkers.
Martell Noblige offers a harmonious blend of strength and smoothness, with notes of pear, prune, and fine-grained oak. Alexandre Combescot, Martell Global Brand Ambassador, emphasizes its potential to deliver new drinking experiences that exceed expectations. Noblige’s rich yet versatile flavor allows for unique cocktail expressions, making it the perfect choice for young, adventurous audiences seeking innovative and memorable experiences. Alexandre and Amaury Firino Martell, the 9th generation of the Martell family, visited Jakarta on December 17, 2024, to host the Martell Noblige Bespoke Cocktails tasting event. Amaury shared the rich history of Martell, highlighting its 300-year journey of timeless craftsmanship and a vision for a sustainable future.

Under the banner of Pernod Ricard Indonesia, Martell, one of the oldest cognac houses in the world, introduced a modern twist on Martell Noblige with the Martell Noblige Bespoke Cocktails. Crafted in collaboration with renowned mixologist Bule Mirwansyah, known for his bold and daring flavor interpretations, Martell Noblige is redefining the way cognac is enjoyed, gaining popularity among mixologists in Asia.
In creating the Martell Noblige Bespoke Cocktails series, Bule believes that Martell Noblige breaks the perception of classic cognac with its fruity and woody character, which can be reimagined into new drinking experiences. One of the standout creations inspired by the globally rising coffee culture and the art of fine mixology includes Noblige Coffee – a delightful mix that combines the smooth, aromatic profile of Martell Noblige with the bold and exotic flavors of Indonesia’s signature coffee beans. This cocktail offers a sensory journey, balancing the rich, oaky notes of the cognac with the nuanced, earthy undertones of premium Indonesian coffee, resulting in a drink that is both invigorating and indulgent.
