LOUIS XIII and Nobu have partnered to create a bespoke dining experience.

It’s a masterful blending of the unique tasting profiles of LOUIS XIII cognac with the delectable flavours Nobu is renowned for the world over. 

LOUIS XIII Private Client Director Jörg Pfützner says: “LOUIS XIII and Nobu share a commitment to excellence and a unique understanding of flavour that make them the perfect partners in a celebration to understated aromas.

Nobu Chef de Cuisine, Hervé Curtot agrees: “At Nobu we work to bring out the inherent aromas of each ingredient, blending them together to create new taste experiences. The delicate balance we achieve works wonderfully with LOUIS XIII.”

In order to fully reveal the many facets of LOUIS XIII Pfützner and Courtot have devised five exceptional pairings that showcase the different sensations evoked by LOUIS XIII.
