V.S X Maser and Conor Harrington

Though destiny would take him to far horizons, Richard Hennessy remained forever connected to two homelands: Ireland, the place of his birth, and France, where the town of Cognac sealed his fame. To honor the Maison’s founder on the 300th anniversary of his birth, Hennessy presents a special limited edition of V.S. created in collaboration with the Irish artistic duo Conor Harrington, of Cork, and the Dublin-based street artist known as Maser.
