The iconic Cognac house has teamed up with renowned Chefs Stephen “Chef Papi” Rodriguez and Diana Dávila to highlight a cultural tradition that embraces quality time spent with friends and family
Rémy Martin continues its long-standing commitment of honoring the best that communities and cultures have to offer by teaming up with renowned chefs, Stephen “Chef Papi” Rodriguez and Chef Diana Dávila to celebrate Latinx culture. Together, they highlight Sobremesa, a post-dining tradition that embraces the appreciation of people and time; values that have been at the heart of Rémy Martin since inception, for nearly three centuries.
The globally celebrated concept of Sobremesa is simple: it is the time spent at the table after eating filled with laughter and easy conversation that only the pleasure of a big meal can inspire. To be engaged in Sobremesa is to forget the construct of time and to appreciate the human interaction with those around you. At Rémy Martin, a talented team of people and the influence of time is what shapes the taste of each unique Cognac. Hand in hand, Rémy Martin and the chefs offer a look into the Sobremesa experience where lively conversations of company, and the refinement of flavorful foods are celebrated.
“It means a lot for me to be working with Rémy Martin to shed light on a tradition that is so beloved in my culture;” said Diana Dávila, Executive Chef and owner of Mi Tocaya Antojeria in Chicago. “Sobremesa is a dining experience where love is the most important ingredient at the table. Family and love are at the heart of everything I do, and this was a really exciting way to show that.”
“I’ve always admired Rémy Martin’s attention to detail and dedication to flavor, so it was exciting to collaborate with them in a way that focuses a specific piece of my heritage,” said Chef and Founder of CHEF PAPI INC. “Teaming up with them allowed me an inside look into the artistic details of their Cognac while sharing my art through cooking to create an incredible Sobremesa moment.”
The unique character and versatility of Rémy Martin have made it the widely accepted Cognac of choice by chefs today. The fragrant notes and unique flavor profiles of Rémy Martin 1738 Accord Royal and Rémy Martin Tercet offer endless possibilities to explore the many opulent tastes and enhanced aromas that express the depth of craftsmanship.
“Rémy Martin is proud to team up with Chef Papi and Chef Diana to celebrate the Sobremesa tradition which is built around people and time; two entities that we greatly value,” said Tina Reejsinghani, Vice President at Rémy Martin Americas. “Our commitment to celebrating excellence in hospitality and gastronomy runs parallel to our admiration of the cultural traditions of the past that continue to bring communities together today.”
Rémy Martin will celebrate Sobremesa with Chef Papi in New York and Chef Diana Dávila, in Chicago with intimate, curated events that focus on spending quality time with loved ones over a great meal and exceptional Cognac. The brand will continue its commitment to exceptional hospitality within the mixology and gastronomy space by celebrating Sobremesa in additional cities.
