✨ Technical Specifications
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.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1765 by Irish officer Richard Hennessy along the banks of the Charente River, Maison Hennessy has defined the architecture and prestige of modern Cognac. Sourcing primarily Ugni Blanc across the region's elite crus—notably Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies, and Fins Bois—the house relies on chalk-dense, limestone-rich soils and a temperate maritime microclimate to achieve base wines of searing natural acidity. Double-distilled on the lees in traditional Charentais copper pot stills, the unaged eaux-de-vie mature inside fine-grained French Tronçais and Limousin oak casks, orchestrated through humid and dry aging cellars. The blending process has been shepherded across eight generations of the Fillioux dynasty, overseen today by Renaud Fillioux de Gironde and the venerated Tasting Committee. From benchmark bottlings such as V.S.O.P Privilège and X.O to crowning legacy assemblages like Hennessy Paradis and Richard Hennessy, the house embodies exceptional purity, structure, and centuries of architectural blending finesse.
