Cognac Fine Champagne · 42%

Rémy Martin Tercet

The cognac that doesn’t behave like cognac: bold, fresh, and distinctly fruity, at 42% ABV. Made by three experts working together, it’s just as good in a Sidecar or French 75 as it is neat or on the rocks.

What is Rémy Martin Tercet?

Three experts, one blend

Tercet refers to a group of three. This cognac was created through a collaboration between Rémy Martin’s master distiller, winemaker, and cellar master, each bringing their own expertise to the blend, guided by Baptiste Loiseau’s original vision. The result is a Cognac Fine Champagne that’s fresh, bold, and distinctly fruity, with a surprisingly long finish.

Two things set it apart from the rest of the house. It’s bottled at 42% instead of 40%, and, according to the brand, made with a special yeast. While the 1738 and XO are all about maturity and oak, Tercet is all about fresh fruit and spices. That makes it the Rémy Martin cognac best suited to ice and citrus.

What does Rémy Martin Tercet taste like?

Fresh fruit with a spicy edge

Nose

Fresh fruit

A distinctly fruity nose, fresher than you’d expect from cognac, with a light touch of spice.

Palate

Lively and smooth

Bold and fresh, with juicy fruit and spices. The 42% ABV gives it strength, but the texture remains smooth.

Finish

Surprisingly long

A long finish in which fruit and spice take turns. That length is what makes it work so well in cocktails.

Sweet 2/5
Fruity 5/5
Spicy 3/5
Power 4/5

Rémy Martin Tercet's flavor profile, neat. Over ice, it becomes fresher and the fruit comes through even more.

How to drink it

Three ways to serve Tercet

Tercet is the cognac for those who want to mix cognac. Ice, citrus and bubbles aren't a waste here; they're exactly the point.

On the rocks

50 ml Tercet over a large ice cube in a tumbler, with a thin strip of lemon zest. The chill makes the fruit even fresher and tempers the 42%.

Tumblers →

Sidecar

50 ml Tercet, 25 ml Cointreau and 25 ml lemon juice, shaken hard with ice and strained into a chilled coupe. Tercet's fruit makes it livelier than a VSOP.

Cognac highball

40 ml Tercet in a highball glass full of ice, topped with 120 ml chilled soda water or ginger ale. Stir once and add an orange wedge.

Everything about Rémy Martin →
What is the alcohol percentage of Rémy Martin Tercet?
Rémy Martin Tercet contains 42% alcohol. That makes it the strongest bottle from the house; the VSOP, 1738, XO, and Louis XIII are all 40%.
What does Tercet mean?
Tercet means a group of three. The name refers to the three experts who made the cognac together: Rémy Martin's master distiller, wine master, and cellar master.
What's the difference between Tercet and the VSOP?
Both are Cognac Fine Champagne, but Tercet is stronger (42% versus 40%), fresher and distinctly fruitier, with a longer finish. The VSOP is rounder, with notes of vanilla and apricot.
Can you use Tercet in cocktails?
Yes, that's exactly what it's made for. Its fruitiness and 42% alcohol mean it stands up well to citrus and bubbles. Try a Sidecar, a French 75, or a simple highball with soda.
Do you drink Tercet over ice?
It works very well. Serve it over a large ice cube in a tumbler for a fresher taste that brings out the fruit. Sipping it neat from a cognac glass highlights the spices and long finish.
