Martell Returns with “Flavours of Martell” Lunar New Year Gastronomy Series

This Lunar New Year, Martell continues its culinary journey with the second edition of Flavours of Martell, a limited-time dining series that showcases how cognac can elevate the depth, symbolism and craftsmanship of festive Chinese cuisine.

Running from now until 3 March 2026, the gastronomy experience brings together three distinguished Chinese restaurants: Peach Blossoms, Summer Palace and Royal China, each presenting specially curated Lunar New Year menus where Martell cognacs are woven directly into the dishes.

Rather than serving as a simple pairing, Martell expressions are infused, integrated and layered into the cuisine itself, adding warmth, aromatic complexity and refined nuance to familiar festive flavours.

Peach Blossoms: Martell-Infused Prosperous Feast

At Peach Blossoms, the seven-course menu is designed as a celebration of prosperity and indulgence, with cognac taking centre stage within the dishes.

Highlights include amaebi topped with Martell Cordon Bleu jelly and a double-boiled hydrangea coral trout soup infused with Martell XXO, where the cognac lends aromatic depth and warmth to the delicate broth. The feast concludes with a contemporary twist: Martell XXO cognac ice cream, offering a refined festive finale distinct from the restaurant’s usual Lunar New Year offerings.

At Michelin-starred Summer Palace, Martell is incorporated with quiet reverence, enhancing the restaurant’s time-honoured Cantonese traditions with subtle sophistication.

The set menu begins with an auspicious geoduck and crispy Kurobuta pork prosperity toss, followed by a luxurious hot stone-braised bird’s nest and fish maw soup with superior chicken and conpoy, gently accented with Martell XXO.

Other highlights include braised 18-head South African abalone in supreme oyster sauce and steamed lobster with an organic garlic trio, where the cognac enhances natural sweetness and umami. The experience concludes with traditional desserts symbolising prosperity and renewal, a menu rooted in heritage, elevated through Martell’s craftsmanship.

Marking its first Chinese New Year celebration, Royal China presents a Martell-inspired festive menu defined by balance and harmony.

The meal opens with yuan yang mantou served with Martell Cordon Bleu-infused olive vegetable butter, before progressing to dishes such as wagyu beef and foie gras accented with Martell VSOP, where the cognac enhances richness while refining savoury depth.

Cognac elements are thoughtfully incorporated across seafood and noodle courses, creating a celebratory menu that feels both traditional and refreshingly contemporary.
