A vibrant bridge between centuries-old French tradition and contemporary global culture, the Hennessy VSOP 'Team Wang' Limited Edition is a striking collaboration with the design house founded by artist Jackson Wang. While the exterior features a sleek, modern aesthetic, the liquid inside remains the legendary Hennessy VSOP Privilège. Crafted from a blend of up to 60 different eaux-de-vie made primarily from Ugni Blanc grapes sourced across the premier crus of the Cognac region, this spirit is double-distilled in traditional copper Charentais alembic stills. It is then aged in French Limousin oak casks, where it develops its signature harmony of strength and smoothness. The result is a beautifully balanced Cognac featuring expressive aromas of fresh fruit, vanilla, and mild tobacco, underpinned by a delicate toasted oak character that honors Hennessy's blending legacy dating back to 1817, when the future King George IV of the United Kingdom requested a 'Very Superior Old Pale' cognac.
🍾 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.
