Product details
Since 1765, Maison Hennessy has perfected the art of cognac-making, a tradition perpetuated by eight generations of Master Blenders. A legacy of cultural openness lets Maison Hennessy shine around the world, wherever its celebrated cognacs are shared. In 1817, James Hennessy created a unique blend for the future King George IV of England. From the encounter of these two visionaries, was born the first Hennessy “Very Superior Old Pale,” know today as Hennessy VSOP.
Tasting notes
Flamboyant mahogany with light tones. Releases very mature notes, evoking the aroma of fresh fruit coupled with a sensation of suppleness that settles in to underscore the harmony of this cognac. The sensation of full body deepens with the flavors of juicy fruits, vanilla, spices and mild tobacco also provided by the vigor of the younger eaux-de-vie.
X SHUTING QIU
An original artwork celebrates renewal, positive transformation, and embracing new beginnings. Shuting Qiu's hometown of Hangzhou, China, is renowned for its traditional crafts, such as the weaving of brocade and jacquard and intricate hand-embroidery. For Hennessy, the designer used those techniques to reimagine florals, incorporating the attributes of the serpent to tell a unique story of movement, transformation and becoming. This innovative art piece made for Hennessy features a dual allegory of transformation and rebirth as the snake sheds its old skin and emerges into an opulent, fantastical landscape. Recalling the grace of the Charente River, the serpent glides from old to new, its glistening red and gold body emerging into a new landscape. Embroidered flower petals appear in relief, symbolizing craft, opulence, and the promise of spring.
