Background
LOUIS XIII COGNAC IS ULTRA-PREMIUM, EXCLUSIVE, RARE, & TIMELESS, CREATED IN 1874. EACH DECANTER TAKES 4 GENERATIONS OF CELLAR MASTERS OVER 100 YEARS TO CRAFT. ITS GRAPES GROW IN THE CHALKY SOILS OF GRANDE CHAMPAGNE, THE MOST SOUGHT-AFTER AREA OF THE COGNAC REGION, IN FRANCE.
WHILE IT IS THE ULTIMATE COGNAC WITH TRUE AUTHENTICITY, THE BRAND IS VIEWED AS LACKING IN EXCITEMENT BY CONSUMERS. IN ORDER TO BE AN ICON OF ULTIMATELY LUXURY, IT IS CRITICAL FOR THE BRAND TO UNDERGO A REVIVAL IN EXCITEMENT, IMAGINATION, MAGIC, AND EMOTION.
THE OBJECTIVE WAS TO BRING BACK THE THRILL AND CREATE A MYSTERIOUS, ENGAGING AND THOUGHT-PROVOKING EXPERIENCE, SO THAT LOUIS XIII CAN BECOME AN ICON OF ULTIMATE LUXURY: A REFERENCE IN TOP LUXURY ACROSS ALL CATEGORIES.
