✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Crafted in 2015 to commemorate the historic 250th anniversary of the house of Hennessy, the 'Coupe des Salaries' is an exceptionally rare, non-commercial masterpiece. Created by eighth-generation Master Blender Yann Fillioux, this unique bottling was gifted exclusively to the maison's dedicated staff as a tribute to their collective craftsmanship and loyalty. The blend represents a meticulous selection of historic eaux-de-vie, primarily distilled from Ugni Blanc grapes grown across Cognac's premier crus. Aged in seasoned Limousin oak casks within the legendary cellars along the Charente River, this spirit offers an incredibly complex profile of dried fruits, warming spices, and elegant rancio, embodying two and a half centuries of unparalleled blending heritage.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Maison Hennessy blev grundlagt i 1765 af den irske officer Richard Hennessy og er i dag verdens førende cognachus med beliggenhed ved bredden af Charente-floden i Cognac. Husets uforlignelige kvalitet bygger på århundreders savoir-faire og et historisk, traditionsrigt samarbejde gennem flere generationer med Fillioux-familiens Master Blenders. Hennessy udvælger nøje Ugni Blanc-druer fra Cognacs fineste crus – herunder Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies og Fins Bois – som dobbeltdestilleres i traditionelle kobberkedler og efterfølgende modnes tålmodigt på fintporede franske egetræsfade. Huset er berømt for at sætte internationale standarder, og det ikoniske sortiment spænder fra den elegante VSOP Privilège og den oprindelige X.O, skabt i 1870, til enestående prestigeblandinger som Hennessy Paradis og Richard Hennessy.
