With Hennessy Paradis on new heights
A rare dinner at higher grounds to savour the virtues of the Hennessy Paradis cognac
Somewhere on high altitudes, where the air is so fresh it’s crispy and where the smell of the snow lingers, lays Lijiang, a famous and historical town that boasts spectacular natural scenery. Handpicked by Hennessy for reasons such as, an exceptional event was held here in honour of its fine Paradis cognac. Breath-taking snow-capped mountains, unspoiled natural landscapes, distinct ethnic cultures, and Yunnan cuisine – a name that translates to “south of the clouds,” – captivated the invitees as they enjoyed traditional meals such as sumptuous hotpots and wild vegetables. Yunnanese cuisine, with its blend of light southeast Asian flavours and the headier flavours of the Tibetan plateau, is renowned in this region. The evening enchanted with an artistic performance as majestic as the surroundings in this province in Southwest China. A historical location that matched the profound history of the Hennessy Paradis cognac.

The evening performance by local famous artists
Created by Maurice Fillioux in 1979, the cognac Hennessy Paradis is known for its voluptuous and harmonious aroma.
It consists of eaux-de-vie, which are a reflection of the personality of such a delightful cognac: supple, light and round.
They are blended into an excellent cognac defined by its graceful, silky character, highlighting its finely nuanced and harmoniously balanced aromatic qualities.
Its superb display of coppery gold colours is an indication of the many years it has spent ageing in old casks.
