Celebrate nature with a top-shelf Cognac.

Hennessy is THE giant in the world of Cognac. Jas Hennessy & Co. produces more than fifty million bottles of Cognac each year — more than 40% of the entire market. Interestingly, this most famous French company located in Cognac, France, was founded by Irishman Richard Hennessy in 1765. The modern company produces nearly two dozen core Spirits and many more collectors editions and limited releases as a subsidiary of Moët Hennessy, which in turn is owned in partnership by Diageo and LVMH.

Now you can celebrate nature with Hennessy VSOP Privilège x Julien Colombier Cognac: their limited-edition collaboration with Julien Colombier, a French artist famous for his hypnotic paintings of tropical jungles and rainforests. This prestigious blend is the result of work of eight generations of Master Blenders. It’s the perfectly balanced Cognac, made from Eaux-de-vie that were mainly aged in partially used barrels. Expect a sipper with a great character of aromas of fresh vanilla, cinnamon, and toasty notes, rounded by subtle oak tannins.

Dog Dogson's Smartass corner
Character Dogson
The wine used for Cognac is very dry, acidic, and thin but excellent for distillation and aging.
There are three primary grades of Cognac recognized by law: V.S., V.S.O.P., and X.O, but we also know Napoléon, XXO, and Hors d'âge.
Believe it or not, the French aren’t all that fond of Cognac. In fact, they export nearly 90% of their production.
Rancio is a highly desirable nutty flavor usually found in extra-aged fortified wines (Port, Sherry, Madeira, Marsala …) and fruit-based Spirits, namely Cognacs, Calvados, and Armagnac. It appears in Cognac after roughly 10 years of maturing in oak casks, becoming more intense over the years.
Hennessy is the largest Cognac producer in the world.
There are six different wine-growing areas (crus) authorized to produce Cognac - in descending order of prestige: Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies, Fins Bois, Bons Bois, and Bois Ordinaires.
