Studio Minerva Partner with Idris Elba’s Porte Noire to Launch a New Premium Cognac

Studio Minerva Partner with Idris Elba’s Porte Noire to Launch a New Premium Cognac

Introducing Porte Noire cognac, a luxurious creation in partnership with Idris Elba crafted to redefine elegance and sustainability in the world of fine spirits. The bottle’s faceted shape elegantly encircles the glass, creating a striking silhouette from every angle is both eye-catching and elegant, with a sustainable label crafted from 100% vegan leather made from recycled grape pomace – a byproduct of winemaking.
This industry-first material reflects the brand’s dedication to environmentally conscious design without
compromising quality.

An interactive feature of the bottle is its stopper, which doubles as an ice stamp, allowing consumers to leave the Porte Noire signature on each pour. This unique element invites personal engagement and reinforces the brand’s refined experience.
Inside, the cognac offers a smooth flavour profile with notes of caramel, dried apricot, tobacco, and vanilla, delivering a taste that is both complex and accessible. Born from Elba’s passion for fine wine and spirits, Porte Noire brings an elevated yet responsible approach to the cognac world.

A proud partnership with Maison Ferrand. One of the most respected Cognac producers in the region and ingrained in the fabric of the local community, this is the first time this historic house has ever partnered with anyone else, making this premium Cognac not only delicious but truly unique. An aromatic bouquet of dried apricot and vanilla, balanced with spices, tobacco, leather, and subtle oak. Hints of honey and caramel at the finish. Its depth provides a lingering intensity while being elegant, silky, and smooth.
