Please find below the pictures of the F.P. Journe event which took place a few days at the boutique in Paris. The purpose was to offer a combine presentation of the prestigious Louis XIII cognac and  of the F.P.Journe tourbillons including the latest Tourbillon Vertical.

Don't be wrong! There are works around the boutique but it remains one of the nicest in Paris.



The Louis XIII presentation has started! And the good point is that the guests can smell and taste the iconic liquid... Some say that this cognac can gather more than 200 flavors.



The amazing crystal bottle of Louis XIII cognac:



The glass isn't bad either!



Lucas and Laure, from the F.P.Journe boutique carefully listen to the explanations about Louis XIII Cognac and the reasons why it is so prestigious.



Three F.P.Journe Tourbillons... including the latest one, the Tourbillon Vertical:



We haven't missed any drop!



I think I would buy this Cognac only for the beauty of its bottle:



With the CS on the wrist:



Christophe, the watchmaker of the boutique explains the main features of the F.P.Journe tourbillons:

Thanks a lot to the team of the F.P.Journe boutique for this nice event!
