Martell Noblige Tour to honor Hill Harper, Ludacris, Frank Ski : MARTELL COGNAC SWEEPS THROUGH ATLANTA ON THE NEXT LEG OF THEIR NATIONAL NOBILITY TOUR 
HONORS GRAMMY AWARD WINNING RECORDING ARTIST AND ACTOR CHRIS "LUDACRIS" BRIDGES, CSI: NY STAR HILL HARPER AND CELEBRATED ATLANTA RADIO PERSONALITY FRANK SKI FOR THEIR DEMONSTRATED PHILANTHROPIC NOBILITY
- Martell comes to Atlanta with "Discover Noblige," a charitable traveling cultural experience honoring local noble men and women for their philanthropic achievements and recognizing the stylistic contributions of Atlanta's art and fashion community -

New York City - (October 5, 2007) - Martell Cognac, imported and distributed by Pernod Ricard USA, first paid homage to their consumer in 2004 with their highly successful Rise Above campaign, launching the career of celebrity chef G. Garvin. Rise Above was an initiative set forth to honor those unique individuals who have showcased their proven ability to rise above life's obstacles. They are the people who persevere beyond the boundaries of competition...those who live up to the elevated standards they set forth for themselves and in turn empower people around them. Martell comes to Atlanta on Sunday, October 14th. The event takes place at a private location with press check in beginning at 6:00p and red carpet at 7:00p.

Exhibiting the utmost continuity in their ideation, Martell continues to revere their noble loyalists with the launch of Noblige (derived from the word Nobility), the next step above VSOP, a fine cognac of poise, structure and style. Martell found it only necessary to now honor their devoted consumer; a refined, noble class of cognac drinkers who embody the attributes that personify the brand. The program's sheer innovation and unyielding generosity was ignited by Martell's inherent belief in giving back in a way no other spirit company has before. Instead of merely donating product and promotional items, Martell identified positive and significant causes that their coveted consumers stood for, and in turn felt it their unconditional duty to fulfill the critical need for financial support.

On October 14th, Martell will visit Atlanta with Discover Noblige, an exclusive traveling exhibition of the art, culture and style of the brand. Martell will recognize local talent of Atlanta, including renowned artists Anthony Liggins and Kerream Jones, burgeoning accessories brand, Ethos Jewelry with their line of hand-crafted, wearable art and internationally recognized celebrity fashion stylist Patrick Cooper. Martell will celebrate their cultural contributions by proudly displaying their valued creations. Martell loyalists and local tastemakers will be taken on a private visual tour of a Noblige art and style lounge, where they will be exposed to an atmosphere of stylistic components that exemplify the Noblige philosophy, from the sleek, innovative shape of the bottle, to fine writing instruments, and elegant garments and accessories; items that represent the brand's superiority and class. Martell prides itself not only on their fine product, but on the stylistic ideals embedded in the brand's integrity. Many have already credited Noblige as the missing ingredient in their distinguished daily ritual; the quintessential element of the luxury lifestyle. The Discover Noblige journey will include a formal festivity of Noblige cuisine tastings recognizing notable Chef David Long as he creates original dishes that compliment the spirit.

As a celebration of charitable giving, Martell will also honor Grammy Award winning and multi-platinum selling recording artist Chris "Ludacris" Bridges for his ongoing commitment to educating Atlanta's youth and demonstrating a strong community connection through The Ludacris Foundation, Atlanta native and popular radio personality Frank Ski for inspiring corporations to unite with community residents to help serve underprivileged children through The Frank Ski Kids Foundation, and NAACP Image Award winning author and actor Hill Harper for the consistent accomplishments in mentorship and education made possible by his MANifest Your Destiny Foundation. In recognition of each of their prestigious cause related endeavors, Martell will make a monetary donation in each of their names to the charitable causes they regularly support. Through this initiative, Martell will give activists a louder voice; encouraging the gracious act of charitable giving and establishing a heightened sense of unity with their noble consumer. Harper was first honored by Martell in Los Angeles at the program's launch, followed by Miami and Detroit. Martell will continue to honor him in each respective city the tour visits as the program's anchor. Martell has also recently honored acclaimed actress Nia Long, actress, author and philanthropist Holly Robinson Peete, veteran athlete and philanthropist Alonzo Mourning, esteemed scholar and humanitarian Dr. Dushyantha T. Jayaweera, celebrated news anchor and award winning philanthropist Rhonda Walker and Cleveland Browns Wide Receiver Braylon Edwards, proudly making monetary contributions to the causes they support.
