Highlights of the Year
Excellence, generosity, transmission: Rémy Cointreau’s world has always resonated with artists and the living world.
Once again this year, the Maisons have created a host of exceptional experiences designed to put the customer center stage. Through these highlights, our teams and partners paint a picture of a Group that is always ready to shape the future by building on its heritage and know-how.
A PRESTIGIOUS SIGNATURE FOR XO
RÉMY MARTIN
Building a bridge between tradition and contemporary art, Rémy Martin launched an exclusive collaboration with Anish Kapoor in 2025. Re-imagining the iconic XO bottle, the internationally renowned artist has incorporated a minimalist curve and a signature concave center, which acts as a lens to capture and reflect the radiant hues of the eau-de-vie. This interplay between the iconic shape and the color of the cognac is extended in a large-scale concave mirror sculpture. Presented at the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA) in London, this limited edition pays tribute to the solar radiance of the XO decanter.
A READY-TO-DRINK SPRITZ
COINTREAU
For over a century, Cointreau has been a cornerstone of the cocktail maker’s art. In 2025, the brand entered the rapidly growing ready-to-drink market with the sparkling and convenient Cointreau Citrus Spritz, combining delicate bubbles with the citrus flavors of its signature liqueur. This sparkling, refreshing, and flavorful cocktail showcases Cointreau’s excellence in mixology in a premium format. Perfect for uncomplicated occasions, it combines French know-how, authentic ingredients, and modern convenience.
UNIQUE TABLEWARE EXPERIENCE
LOUIS XIII
After over a century gracing the most prestigious gastronomic tables, LOUIS XIII unveiled its very first tableware collections in 2025: Soil is our Soul and Light of Time. Designed in collaboration with the prestigious French porcelain-maker J.L. Coquet, both these collections capture the essence of the terroir and history of LOUIS XIII. With a limited edition of 750 numbered pieces, these collections make for a complete fine-dining experience, from appetizer to dessert.
TOWARD ORGANIC AND REGENERATIVE VITICULTURE
TELMONT
In 2025, Maison Telmont earned Regenerative Organic Certified® (ROC™) status at Bronze level for its certified organic vineyards, attesting to its exemplary environmental and social practices. Beyond this certification, Telmont has launched its project titled “In the Name of Mother Nature”, with a commitment to converting 100% of its estate and its partners’ vineyards to organic and regenerative agriculture by 2031 and to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, thereby blazing a new trail for soil regeneration in the Champagne region.
UNDER THE SUN AT METAXA 5 STARS
METAXA
In 2025, METAXA proudly unveiled the new design for its iconic METAXA 5 Stars bottle, a bold fusion of the brand’s rich heritage and a resolutely contemporary esthetic. This strategic relaunch marks the first major makeover for the Stars range. Backed by a 360° immersive campaign titled “Sunverse”, inviting consumers around the world to immerse themselves in a bright and joyful universe, the launch celebrated the warmth, optimism, and energy of the sun, METAXA’s timeless symbol.
THE HIGHEST STANDARDS IN THE SERVICE OF THE LIVING WORLD
HAUTES GLACES
By joining the Regenerative Organic Alliance (ROA), Domaine des Hautes Glaces has become the world’s first farm and whisky distillery to become Regenerative Organic Certified (ROC). This rigorous organic standard aims to ensure soil restoration, animal welfare, improved working conditions, and fair compensation for workers. By joining this community, drawing on the diversity of its members and united by a common goal, Hautes Glaces demonstrates its commitment to combining environmental protection with the pursuit of flavor.
FROM FARM TO BOTTLE: THE TASTE OF ISLAY
BRUICHLADDICH DISTILLERY
In 2025, Bruichladdich unveiled The Laddie Rye, a seven-year-old rye whisky. Available exclusively in the United States as a limited edition, fully traceable from farm to bottle. The Laddie Rye is distilled from Islay rye and malted barley grown and harvested within an 18-kilometer radius of the distillery. By reducing the use of chemical fertilizers, rye cultivation promotes regenerative agriculture and soil health while contributing to the production of a whisky of exceptional quality. Whisky connoisseurs didn’t want to miss out, and by the first week the brand’s online store in the United States had already sold out.
AN ISLAND AND A FOUNDATION
THE BOTANIST
Since 2015, The Botanist Foundation has been working with residents of Islay and beyond to promote sustainability, biodiversity, and the conservation of the island. Over the past decade, it has supported a wide range of projects in Scotland and beyond: island-wide surveys of wild flora and pollinators, mapping of sea-grass beds, support for global conservation initiatives, and funding for university research.
THE PATIENCE OF OAK
WESTLAND
After a decade of patient dedication to cultivating a native oak species – the Garry oak, a rare variety from the Pacific Northwest of the United States used to craft its barrels – the Westland Distillery enthusiastically celebrated the unveiling of Garryana 10th Edition, its first aged whiskey, in the presence of around 700 guests. Garryana 10th Edition was voted Best American Whiskey at the Spill Awards presented by Inside Hook, an award enhanced by this exceptional day of sharing and celebration.
WHERE TWO WORLDS MEET
ST-RÉMY
Bringing together exceptional spirits and urban art was the successful outcome of the exclusive collaboration launched in 2025 by St-Rémy with Lyon-based visual artist Thomas Lateur (Tomalater). With his limited-edition bottle design, he brings his vibrant, semi-abstract, geometric, and colorful style to the brand. Drawing inspiration from the diverse landscapes explored by Cécile Roudaut, Master Blender at St-Rémy, where villages and vineyards create a mosaic of colors, the artist achieves a perfect fusion with his own artistic world as an explorer of colors, shapes, and unique memories.
A RUM AS UNIQUE AS ITS TERROIR
MOUNT GAY
In November 2025, Mount Gay launched two new limited-edition rums crafted by Master Blender Trudiann Branker: Single Estate Series 25_03 and 25_04. Made exclusively from sugarcane grown on the historic Mount Gay estate in Saint Lucy, Barbados, they capture the unique essence of the Mount Gay terroir. This dual launch was marked by intimate events in Barbados, the United Kingdom, and France, reflecting the deep connection between Mount Gay and its terroir, its production methods, and its people.
AN EXCEPTIONAL ARTIST’S TABLE
BELLE DE BRILLET
In October 2025, Belle de Brillet teamed up with Arnold d’Alger to create a unique immersive experience designed for influencers. The Atelier Grand Soleil, dedicated to introducing visitors to ceramics and gold leaf decoration founded by the artist in Paris, welcomed guests to a workshop, a tasting, and a dinner prepared by chef Robert Mendoza. The content posted by the invited influencers helped raise Belle de Brillet’s profile on social media, generating an estimated 1.5 million views.
