The Hennessy VS (Very Special) NBA Limited Edition 2024 celebrates the dynamic partnership between the historic French Cognac house and the National Basketball Association. Crafted primarily from the Ugni Blanc grape grown in the Cognac region, this vibrant spirit is a masterclass in consistency and blending. It comprises a selection of approximately 40 distinct eaux-de-vie, each aged for a minimum of two years in Limousin French oak casks. This specific limited edition brings a modern, energetic aesthetic to a historic blend first created in the mid-19th century. On the palate, it delivers Hennessy's signature profile of toasted almonds, fresh grapes, citrus zest, and a warm, oak-driven finish, bridging centuries of French distilling heritage with contemporary global culture.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Founded in 1765 by Irish officer Richard Hennessy in the historic town of Cognac, France, Hennessy has grown to become the world's most celebrated Cognac house. Headquartered on the banks of the Charente River along Rue de la Richonne, the house is renowned for its centuries-old blending heritage, famously guided by eight generations of master blenders from the Fillioux family. Utilizing traditional double-distillation in copper Charentais alembic stills, Hennessy ages its precious eaux-de-vie in French oak casks sourced from the Limousin forest to develop unparalleled complexity and depth. The estate's legendary portfolio is defined by iconic expressions such as the VSOP Privilège, the pioneering XO Cognac—a category first created by Maurice Hennessy in 1870—and the exquisite, ultra-premium Hennessy Paradis.
