✨ Tekniske specifikationer
This striking limited edition represents a masterful intersection of high design and historic blending. Created in collaboration with acclaimed British designer Tom Dixon, the Silver edition features a contemporary, faceted carafe inspired by the crystalline geology of Cognac and the traditional copper alembic stills used in distillation. Inside this avant-garde vessel lies Hennessy's legendary XO Cognac, an expression originally crafted in 1870 by Maurice Hennessy. Composed of over one hundred eaux-de-vie sourced from the region's premier crus—primarily Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies, and Fins Bois—and aged for up to thirty years in Limousin oak casks, it offers a deeply complex sensory journey of candied fruit, sweet spices, wild cocoa, and a signature black pepper finish.
🍾 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.
