✨ Technical Specifications
This exclusive release represents a striking collaboration between the historic house of Hennessy and the acclaimed British designer Tom Dixon. Released as part of the Hennessy X.O Exclusive Collection, the "Gold Rush" edition features a contemporary, tessellated carafe finished in a brilliant copper-gold sheen, mimicking the raw geological beauty of crystals and gold ore. Inside this avant-garde bottle is the classic Hennessy X.O blend, first created in 1870 by Maurice Hennessy for his inner circle of friends. This legendary Cognac is a masterful assemblage of over one hundred eaux-de-vie aged up to 30 years in French Limousin oak casks. The grapes, predominantly Ugni Blanc, are harvested from the premier crus of the Cognac region, including Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies, and Fins Bois. The resulting spirit is celebrated for its deep amber hue, robust structure, and complex layers of candied fruit, wild cocoa, and warm baking spices.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1765 by Irish officer Richard Hennessy, Maison Hennessy is the world's leading Cognac house, nestled along the banks of the Charente River in Cognac, France. The house's enduring excellence is rooted in centuries of savoir-faire and a historic multi-generational collaboration with the Fillioux family of Master Blenders. Utilizing meticulously selected Ugni Blanc grapes from Cognac's finest crus—including Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies, and Fins Bois—Hennessy double-distills in traditional copper pot stills before patient maturation in fine-grained French oak casks. Renowned for setting international benchmarks, its iconic range spans the elegant VSOP Privilège and the original X.O—pioneered in 1870—to exceptional prestige assemblages like Hennessy Paradis and Richard Hennessy.
