Martell, founded in 1715, is the oldest of the great Cognac houses, and Blue Swift is its transatlantic experiment. It starts as Martell VSOP Cognac, made with the house's signature double distillation of clear wines only, with the lees removed, for eaux-de-vie of real purity. That VSOP is then finished in Kentucky bourbon barrels, and because Cognac rules require aging only in French oak, the result is technically classified as an eau-de-vie de vin, or Cognac spirit drink, rather than Cognac. The release nods to Martell's history as the first Cognac house to export barrels to America. It's bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof). According to the producer, the nose shows banana and caramelized pear with vanilla, coconut, spice and a touch of menthol, while the palate brings ginger and white candied fruits such as plum, with vanilla and toasted oak from the bourbon casks giving the finish its smoothness and length. It drinks like a bridge between brandy and bourbon, which makes it a natural for whiskey drinkers curious about Cognac. Martell suggests it neat, over ice, or in cocktails like a Mint Julep, and it also makes a fine Old Fashioned.
