Napoleon Cognac Knowledge Guide
Napoleon is a Cognac classification within the BNIC grading system, falling between VSOP and XO. The youngest eau-de-vie must be aged for at least 6 years (new regulation in 2018), though brands typically blend eaux-de-vie aged for 10–15 years. It's worth noting that "Napoleon" has two meanings in the Cognac world: one is the official BNIC classification; the other is a brand name (e. g., Courvoisier Napoleon, Martell Napoleon, and other series products).
Historical Origin of the Napoleon Classification
The name "Napoleon" comes from the 19th-century French emperor, Napoleon Bonaparte. In 1811, a comet passed by, and the grape harvest that year was exceptionally good, known as the "Comet Vintage." Emperor Napoleon was particularly fond of the grape spirits from that year, so the Cognac industry named its mid-to-high-end aged spirits "Napoleon" in his memory. Courvoisier, having supplied relatives of Emperor Napoleon before World War II, was dubbed "the Cognac of Napoleon."
Napoleon vs VSOP vs XO
| Grade | Minimum Legal Age of Youngest Eau-de-vie | Actual Average Aging | Market Positioning |
| VSOP | ≥ 4 years | 7–12 years | Regular Mid-range |
| Napoleon | ≥ 6 years | 10–15 years | Mid-to-High-end |
| XO | ≥ 10 years | 15–30 years | Premium Regular |
Comparison of Major Brands' Napoleon Series
| Brand | Status | Notable Versions |
| Courvoisier Napoleon | Still in production | Full range: VS, VSOP, Napoleon, XO Imperial |
| Martell Napoleon | Discontinued | 80s–90s Cordon Bleu Napoleon, Grand Napoleon |
| Rémy Martin Napoleon | Discontinued | 80s Hong Kong edition with red cap and black label Napoleon |
| Hennessy Napoleon | Few historical versions | Transitional product, discontinued for many years |
| Camus Napoleon | Still in production | Golden Flower Napoleon, Borderies Napoleon |
Collection Logic for Discontinued Napoleon Brands
The Napoleon series from Martell and Rémy Martin have been discontinued for many years, with diminishing quantities available in the market. Collectors seek out these "out-of-print" items. Complete bottles with original red paper boxes, English-only back labels, and liquid levels reaching the shoulder are seeing steadily rising resale prices. While Courvoisier Napoleon is still in production, the 70s–80s golden label old editions are also valuable.
Napoleon Collection Advice
- Martell/Rémy Martin Napoleon – Focus on old editions: Due to discontinuation, old editions are rare and out-of-print, with stable rising resale value.
- Courvoisier Napoleon Imperial XO: As the flagship of "the Cognac of Napoleon," old golden label Napoleon and Imperial XO consistently have stable collector demand.
- Collect entire batches of 1980s Hong Kong editions: Napoleon series sold in the Hong Kong market back then (red paper box, English-only back label, metal cap) fetch better premiums when collected as a batch.
- Slight liquid loss in bottles is common: Many Napoleon bottles are old spirits from the 80s–90s, and slight liquid loss (within half a centimeter) is normal aging. Negotiate prices based on the extent of loss (usually a deduction of 8–15%).
