The House of Rémy Martin has unveiled its latest masterpiece: Rémy Martin VS Supérieur, a bold, expressive, and modern cognac that embodies the vibrant spirit of Nigeria’s Owambe culture.
Amaury Vinclet, Executive Director of Rémy Martin, praises Nigeria’s vibrant culture, where celebrations are an integral part of life.
“It’s called the Owambe culture, and I can feel the synergy,” he says. The Nigerian market’s strong appetite for quality products and desire for accessible and attainable luxury make Rémy Martin VS Supérieur a perfect fit.
