It is the oldest of the "big four" cognac houses (the others are Hennessy, Rémy Martin and Courvoisier), who together produce most of the world's cognac.[1] Formerly owned by the Seagram spirits empire, it is now part of the Martell Mumm Perrier-Jouët (MMPJ) subsidiary of the French wines and spirits conglomerate Pernod Ricard.[2] Martell's flagship Cordon Bleu, introduced in 1912, was for many years the world's highest-selling premium cognac.[2] This article includes a list of general references, but it lacks sufficient corresponding inline citations.
