Courvoisier cognac is famous world-wide for its Napoleonic connection dating back to 1811. It was then that Parisian Wine & Spirit Merchant Emmanuel Courvoisier began supplying the court of Emperor Napolean I. Following an aborted attempt to flee to the U.S., Napolean's stock of Cognac was discovered by British Naval officers on board the escape ship. The British were so impressed with the drink that it henceforth became known as the 'Emperor's Cognac'. The House of Courvoisier was built and the silhouette of Napoleon graces every bottle to this day. Probably a duty free exclusive, this is yet another expression reinforcing what has become the company's trademark.
