✨ Tekniske specifikationer
The Hennessy VS Faith XLVII Limited Edition is a striking collaboration that bridges the worlds of urban art and centuries-old blending heritage. Released as part of Hennessy's annual artistic partnership series, this bottling features artwork by the acclaimed South African interdisciplinary artist Faith XLVII, who drew inspiration from the natural elements, cycles of time, and the alchemy of blending eaux-de-vie. Inside the bottle is Hennessy's signature Very Special (VS) Cognac, a benchmark expression crafted from a blend of approximately 40 different eaux-de-vie sourced primarily from the Fins Bois, Bons Bois, Borderies, and Grande and Petite Champagne crus. Distilled from Ugni Blanc grapes using traditional copper Charentais alembic stills, the spirit is aged in French Limousin oak casks, imparting its characteristic notes of toasted almond, brown sugar, and vibrant fruitiness balanced by a delicate touch of oak.
🍾 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.
