Maison Courvoisier releases special design for Harrods anniversary
Cognac house Maison Courvoisier has announced an exclusive design of Courvoisier Extra for the 175th anniversary of luxury department store Harrods.
In celebration of the anniversary, Courvoisier has collaborated with artist Clym Evernden to design the limited-edition Extra bottle and packaging. The design nods to both brands, depicting the Courvoisier Maison in Jarnac, in the Cognac region, as well as the Harrods Knightsbridge department store.
Sarah Isaac, head of Suntory Global Spirit Brands, Edrington UK, said: “The partnership with Clym Evernden was originally born out of an attraction to his style of illustration. The light, bright, joyful artistry is in keeping with the world we have for Courvoisier. He has magnificently brought to life the partnership of Courvoisier and Harrods — a homage to our shared values of celebrating the finest things in life, crafted with mastery, artistry, and creative flair, with an unparalleled commitment to excellence.”
Thibaut Hontanx, chief blender for Maison Courvoisier, added: “Throughout the past 175 years, Harrods has been committed to celebrating the world’s finest, with unparalleled variety, ultimate exclusivity, unique experiences and unsurpassed service. We are delighted to partner with Harrods to launch this very special edition of Extra in the UK.”
The Harrods-exclusive release is limited to 175 bottles at RRP £450. It will be available in-store and online at Harrods UK from 1 July 2024.
