✨ Technical Specifications
The Hennessy Kenzo collaboration represents a stunning intersection of French liquid savoir-faire and Japanese haute couture. Created in partnership with the visionary designer Kenzo Takada, this special release celebrates the shared values of craftsmanship, color, and multicultural harmony. The spirit within is a masterfully crafted Cognac, distilled from Ugni Blanc grapes harvested from the premier crus of the Cognac region, including Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne. Double-distilled in traditional copper Charentais stills, the eaux-de-vie are aged in fine-grained Limousin oak casks. The resulting blend offers a vibrant sensory journey, mirroring Kenzo's signature floral and energetic design motifs with notes of rich dried fruits, sweet spices, and subtle toasted wood.
