Hennessy - Cognac - Hennessy Very Special

For over 150 years, Very Special Cognac Hennessy  has established its unparalleled style. Reflecting Hennessy's expertise, it results from a lengthy process of selecting eaux-de-vie which are blended and aged in barrels with unwavering consistency. Hennessy VS melds a forthright and fruity character with vibrant woody notes, instantly discernible on the nose, paired with toasted nuances, brown sugar, and subtler hints of vine fruit. The agile and intense palate extends this creamy flavor profile, adding a more vanilla dimension to the mix. Some fresh and spontaneous floral notes round it off, imbuing a warm vitality.

Its longevity is ensured by the uninterrupted transmission of a steadfast expertise, embodied by eight generations of cellar masters who have succeeded one another since its inception, today represented by Renaud Fillioux de Gironde. Rigorous and expert selection, tailored maturation, and bespoke blending are the three pillars of the Maison, which is now present in over 160 countries, an undisputed market leader.
