Product Information

Under his leadership, the company expanded rapidly with a range of products and was passed on to the next generation within the family, until in 1971 Kilian Hennessy created the group Moet Hennessy in a merger with the Champagne producer Moet et Chandon.

Today, Renaud Fillioux de Gironde is the head cellar master at Hennessy; he continues to represent this family tradition. He took over from Yann Fillioux in 2018. Kim Jones pays singular tribute to two processes that call for an understanding of science, nature, and know-how in the Hennessy X.O. Limited Edition bottle design. Enclosed in an aluminum "second skin," the bottle remains faithful to the emblematic shape of the Hennessy X.O. decanter, highlighting its characteristic curves and shape. This structure embodies the fusion between creation and heritage of the House of Hennessy. Kim Jones, known for his contemporary yet minimalist approach, has infused his sportswear and graphic vision into the new Hennessy X.O. decanter.

Hennessy VS Cognac Miniature 5cl

Senior Vice President of Hennessy USA, Rodney Williams, said of the creation, “Peter Saville’s creation is an innovative and beautiful nod to the storied history of the Hennessy VSOP Privilege blend.” “… originally created for King George IV, what’s striking is how Peter has taken this historical blend – the world’s first VSOP – and masterfully created a contemporary design that still symbolizes its elevated pedigree”. Hennessy invented the XO Cognac category in 1870 - characterized by its sinuous decanter that has been reimagined on countless occasions. They have since gone on to invent the XXO Cognac - challenging industry standards and yet remaining staunchly in touch with savoir-faire carefully assembled throughout the ages. While they do not own their own vines like other producers, Hennessy’s centuries of savoir-faire means that their eighth-generation Master Blender, Renaud Fillioux, is an industry expert. He knows exactly which of the thousands of eaux-de-vie to select from the vast Hennessy ‘Paradise’ cellar. The rarest products are Cognac Ellipse, the Cognac Richard and of course the “Beauté du Siecle”, a particular blend of reserves designed by the artist Jean-Marie Othoniel in an edition of 100, which is worth 180.000 Euros on the market today. A History of Jas Hennessy & Co

Hennessy VSOP Privilege is, in 2018, a massive 200 years old. And this is tantamount to how great a blend it really is. It all came about in March of 1818, when the soon-to-be King of England, George IV, had a specially commissioned “tierçon cask of excellent quality old pale” presented to him by James Hennessy. The masterminded blend created by the Hennessy and the Fillioux families that was to become the iconic VSOP Privilege was thus born. From 2018 onward, Hennessy experienced production shortages caused in part by increased demand, bottle shortages, and frosts. [19] Marketing [ edit ] Yann and Renaud took to the floor to make a speech, and present the beauty that is the Hennessy 8 decanter. Following this, there were some photo opportunities, including the chance for Sophie to get a shot with Cellar Masters old and new, along with the decanter. For this year’s VS interpretation, the artistically innovative pair were invited to create a dual design that expresses the pulse of street culture through freestyle dance, original music, and Hennessy’s first-ever fashion capsule collection. This collaboration marks new territory for the world’s biggest Cognac brand as it introduces not only two hypnotizing and analogous bottle designs to represent one limited edition, but also a multi-media project, conceived around the tagline “Move Out Loud”, that communicates the multi-faceted creative spirit of Hennessy, Les Twins, and France as a whole. So, who is VHILS? Well, for those who know their artists, then his is likely to be a familiar name.This edition to the VSOP Privilege Collector’s Series is the Hennessy VSOP Privilege Limited Edition Bottle, with the Peter Saville touch of magic. The result was a beautifully re-casted carafe in a graduating matte-gold color. Taking inspiration from the origin and composition of the grape itself – the ‘genome’, Saville incorporated a DNA motif into a gridded color scheme, as well as neon pink, electric blue and orange. The Hennessy Tom Dixon XO Exclusive Collection is a unique and contemporary interpretation of the traditional XO carafe, with a visual tribute to the 100+ eaux-de-vie that go into creating the cognac.
