Since  1724, the House of Rémy Martin has been cultivating the lands of Charente in France. Resulting from the prestigious terroirs of the Grande and  Petite  Champagne,  its cognacs have remarkable aging potential. The exclusive selection of grapes that form the heart and soul of the cognac, combined with the unique know-how of the cellar masters, creates an unparalleled intensity of flavor. With  Rémy  Martin and  Louis  XIII,  the  House pursues a single ambition: revealing the talents of nature and man by striving to capture the essence of cognac.

In alignment with its strong environmental values, the House of Rémy Martin is an enthusiastic proponent of dark sky places. Their association with the night sky dates back to one of their early directors. An avid astronomer, he chose Sagitarrius for Rémy Martin’s logo in 1870.

Your True Nature began creating eco-friendly products and programs in 1993 after founder Ilan Shamir received sage advice from a tree: Stand tall and proud. Remember your roots. Enjoy the view! From there, Ilan and his daughter, Laurel, have worked side by side to help the company branch out and reach new horizons. Their story is rooted in caring for the earth, creating new advice, planting trees, and using heart-tickling inspiration and wisdom to celebrate the beauty of nature and human nature. Your True Nature has been an IDA supporter since 2010 and has contributed $15,000+ to support IDA’s night sky protection.
