Hennessy V.S.O.P : BLENDED FOR CELEBRATION

A delightful blend that was, is and will always be blended for celebration.

Heritage

COMMISSIONED FOR GATHERINGS

The story of Hennessy V.S.O.P is as colorful as the guests who first tasted it. In 1817, the future King of England asked Hennessy to produce a ‘Very Superior Old Pale’ for an extravagant gathering. The following year, our first shipment was sent to the Brighton Pavilion, where this royal had invited a blend of guests at the forefront of fashion, art and architecture to mix, mingle and make merry.

FOREVER MADE TO DELIGHT

The taste of Hennessy V.S.O.P is as delightful today as it was when it was commissioned in 1817 by the future King of England. That is because every time Renaud Fillioux de Gironde, the eighth Hennessy Master Blender from the same family, works on it, he draws upon centuries of expertise while maintaining its original purpose: to delight all those who will savor it while in the company of family, friends, and friends they're about to make.

HENNESSY V.S.O.P

Hennessy V.S.O.P was commissioned in 1817 by the future King George IV of England to enthral guests at a colorful gathering.

It’s the very first passionate achivement of Hennessy’s original Master Blender, Jean Fillioux, whose family has continued to perfect it for eight generations over two centuries.

With its inviting nose of sweet apricot and its charming palate of voluptuous vanilla and mellow oak, Hennessy V.S.O.P is smooth, charming and all embracing.
