Description

Hennessy is one of the oldest houses to hail from Cognac, dating back as far as 1765 when set up by the Irishman Richard Hennessy. To this day they hold some of the oldest and rarest reserves of eaux de vie. Remarkably the current Master Blender, Yann Fillioux is the 7th generation of the same family to head the blending process at the house.

Tasting notes

Hennessy is undoubtedly one of the spicier and richer

Hennessy

Hennessy was founded in 1765 by Richard Hennessy, an Irishman who settled in the town of Cognac in south-west France, and the house still has its home on the banks of the Charente. Its cognacs start with Ugni Blanc grapes from the region's top crus, which are made into wine, distilled into eaux-de-vie and aged in French oak.

The blending has been in the hands of the Fillioux family for generations. Start with Hennessy VS, a lively favourite for mixing, then step up to the rounder VSOP or the rich, complex XO. Try VS with ginger ale over plenty of ice, and save the XO for sipping slowly after dinner.
