How to Spot a Fake Bottle of Martell

Fake and counterfeit drinks are a problem for big brands around the globe, and the Martell brand is not left out. This is the third episode of the BottleKing Spot the Fake series, while our past episodes focused on spotting the original Jack Daniels and Hennessy brands. With fake manufacturers' increasing efforts to replicate the Martell drink, here are some ways you can identify an original Martell drink.

1. A Blue Seal

Every original Martell drink comes with an air-tight blue seal. The blue seal covers a wooden cork coming from the mouth of the bottle down to the neck. The seal is smooth and always free of cuts or tears on any side.

2. The Martell logo

At the top of the front label is the Martell logo engraved to the bottle surface and it can be felt by touch. This is one way that an original Martell bottle can be spotted because of its difficulty to be replicated by counterfeits.

3. NAFDAC Registration Number

The back label of an authentic Martell drink should contain a NAFDAC (National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control) number. This number is assigned by the agency to products that have passed the quality and standard test carried out and subsequently registered.

It is now very easy to spot a fake Martell bottle with these signs.

You can, however, save yourself the trouble of checking for signs each time when you order from BottleKing.ng. You can be assured that you will get only authentic drinks from BottleKing.
