The Maker With over 250 years of expertise, Hennessy is renowned worldwide for its dedication to the art of cognac-making. The House of Hennessy, established by Richard Hennessy in 1765, meticulously selects, ages, and blends the eaux-de-vie that form the heart of each of its cognacs. Hennessy holds one of the most extensive reserves of eaux-de-vie in the world, ensuring that each bottle embodies the heritage, precision, and unparalleled quality for which it is celebrated. Today, Hennessy continues to craft prestigious cognacs under the guidance of an expert blending team, maintaining a reputation built on craftsmanship and innovation. Hennessy’s philosophy revolves around exceptional quality, precision, and tradition. The journey from grape to bottle is a carefully orchestrated process, beginning with the selection of the finest Ugni Blanc grapes, which are fermented into wine and then distilled twice in traditional copper stills. This creates the eaux-de-vie that form the base of all Hennessy cognacs. Aged in oak barrels, the eaux-de-vie mature and develop complexity, with Hennessy’s Tasting Committee rigorously selecting the finest spirits for blending. The blending process is a careful art, with Hennessy’s master blenders combining eaux-de-vie from various years to create a perfectly balanced and harmonious flavour profile. Hennessy’s commitment to minimal intervention and attention to detail ensures that every bottle meets the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship, allowing the character and legacy of the brand to shine through in every sip. Tasting Notes Nose Rich, Spicy, Floral The Hennessy V.S.O.P Year of the Snake opens with a delightful burst of soft spices such as vanilla, clove, and cinnamon, accompanied by delicate toasted notes from its maturation in oak barrels. These fragrances evolve into more subtle aromas, including hints of honey and a trace of liquorice, creating a beautifully layered and inviting bouquet. Palate Wood, Spice, Harmony On the palate, this cognac offers a generous, full-bodied experience. The blend of wood and spices is well-balanced, with cloves and cinnamon harmonizing with an undercurrent of honey. There is an elegant complexity as the wine evolves, with floral notes and hints of oak that provide a luxurious mouthfeel. A smooth, sophisticated richness unfolds, offering both elegance and depth. Finish Lingering, Oak, Vanilla The finish is long and satisfying, with the soft oak notes lingering on the palate. The complexity of the flavours builds, and a subtle, warm vanilla essence is left in its wake. The final taste is enduring, leaving a lasting impression of luxury, smoothness, and elegance.

Hennessy Paradis Cognac Oak

Product Information: Discover the fresh face of Hennessy Paradis. First released in the US and then rolled out internationally in 2023, the new packaging combines artistry and innovation with a reduced carbon footprint. Crafted from FSC-certified, sustainably sourced oak from France, the sleek wooden box is a testament to Hennessy's commitment to the environment. Weighing 1.5 kg less than its predecessor, it reduces the carbon footprint while paying homage to the oak barrels that nurture the cognac to perfection. The new design of the box features a detachable podium that elevates the Paradis vessel to highlight the fluid lines of the decanter. With its sophisticated, sensuous shape, the decanter that sits within the oak box resembles angel wings—an indication of the heavenly nature of the liquid within it. While the packaging is elevated to new forms, the Hennessy Paradis stays true to its much-loved characteristics—the cognac exudes floral characters of rose and jasmine, accented with notes of exotic fruit and cinnamon on the nose. The rich, copper-hued Hennessy is silky on the palate, smooth and flavourful with a deep, persistent finish, and a voluptuous aroma that lingers on after the perfect sip. Hennessy Paradis was created by Maurice Fillioux in 1979 as a tribute to his love of music. He compared the blend to ‘a symphonic orchestra’, as “classical music that takes you away and connects with your emotions.” The number of instruments in an orchestra is not necessarily a measure of its success, but rather the purity of sound it creates and the virtuosity of the conductor. The same holds true for Hennessy Paradis, a union of exceptional eaux-de-vie selected for their individual qualities that together create a harmonious and graceful cognac. Distinctive for its graceful character and immediately delights with its rich copper colour. A perfectly balanced blend, both voluptuous and round, it combines smoothness and strength with a silky texture. Naturally, it has a flavourful and deep, persistent finish.

Philosophy: The journey from grape to bottle in Hennessy cognac production is a meticulous process involving several key stages. It all starts with the careful selection of Ugni Blanc grapes from the Cognac region, known for their high acidity and low alcohol content. In fact, A spirit that bears the Cognac Protected Appellation of origin (PDO) has to comply with regulated specifications, its grapes must be grown in Cognac, and the wine made from them produced here, defined by strict borders surrounding the Charente River. Seems pedantic but you can taste the difference. After harvest, the grapes are pressed, and the juice undergoes fermentation to become a low-alcohol wine. This wine is then distilled twice in copper stills, a crucial step that concentrates its flavours and aromas. Double distillation is required to make eaux-de-vie for cognac. In the first, a raw spirit called “brouillis” is produced. The second distillation produces a much higher alcohol content. Only the middle part, the ‘heart’, is saved.

The resulting eaux-de-vie is aged in French oak barrels, where it matures and develops complexity over time. Hennessy's master blenders then skillfully blend eaux-de-vie of different ages and characteristics to create the desired flavour profile for each cognac expression.
