Collection: Martell Cognac | Martell EXTRA Old Liquor Buyback

Martell Extra | Top-tier Aged Cognac in a Poseidon Bottle

Martell Extra is a top-tier aged cognac from the brand, positioned between XO and L'Or. It comes in a unique blue "Poseidon" bottle (tall and slender with a handle), and the liquid itself has a deep brass color. The average aging period for the base spirits is 30–50 years, with very limited production and much lower market circulation than Hennessy Extra. This product is positioned as a collector's item, and each bottle requires individual appraisal.

Poseidon Bottle Versions by Era

  • 1980–2000 Old Edition Extra: Blue Poseidon bottle, shorter in height, with original wooden box and certificate of authenticity.
  • 2000–2015 Standard Edition Extra: Continues with the blue Poseidon bottle, minor adjustments to the paper box design.
  • Post-2015 Current Edition Martell Extra: Bottle design retains the blue Poseidon elements, packaging upgraded to a modern magnetic gift box.
  • Limited Crystal Edition: Occasional commemorative limited editions, certified by Baccarat, making them a top-tier collectible.

Key Valuation Points for Special Bottles

  1. Blue Glass Translucency: The blue of the Poseidon bottle should appear deep sapphire to purplish under strong light; greenish or blackish hues indicate a counterfeit.
  2. Handle Intact and Crack-Free: The Poseidon bottle features a handle design, which is prone to internal cracks from minor impacts; the connection points need careful inspection.
  3. Original Wooden Box/Certificate of Authenticity: A wooden box with brass clasp and a complete certificate of authenticity with Maison documents can increase value by up to 30%.
  4. Bottle Number: Limited crystal editions must match the certificate number.

Authenticating the Poseidon Bottle

The Poseidon bottle is made using hand-blown techniques (old editions) or precise molding (new editions). Genuine bottles have smooth, seamless handle connections; counterfeits often show obvious seams. The "Martell" lettering and swift logo at the bottom of the bottle are finely molded. We recommend taking four photos: a full view of the bottle, a close-up of the handle connection, the bottom of the bottle, and the gold foil stamping on the original wooden box (if any), then sending them via WhatsApp for an appraiser's assessment.


EXTRA Acquisition Method

Due to Extra's high value and the Poseidon bottle's fragility, Chunxiang Wine Merchants recommends an initial remote bottle inspection via WhatsApp video call, followed by arranging for a specialist to collect it using a specialized cushioned box. On-site inspection will be followed by immediate cash or FPS payment.
