Cognac Hennessy

An emblematic event

Every year, Hennessy invites Cognac X.O. lovers to a meeting by reinterpreting its emblematic decanter. This year, the decanter is adorned with an elegant copper-colored coat that celebrates the new ways of tasting the famous Cognac.

Since its creation in 1870, the character of Hennessy X.O has remained unchanged. Today, the Hennessy Tasting Committee is expanding the repertoire of Hennessy X.O by fusing it with ice.

Hennessy X.O & Ice: 3 ways to enjoy it

• Hennessy X.O on Three Rocks: A tasting method that is both very contemporary and rooted in the Hennessy family tradition. Pour the cognac in a straight glass over three good-sized ice cubes. The ice will gradually melt, releasing the candied fruit and spice aromas of Hennessy X.O. An ideal way to enjoy Hennessy X.O., as the Hennessy family has done for several generations, as an aperitif or after dinner.
• Hennessy X.O on a Rock: A surprising revelation of the many eaux-de-vie that make up X.O. Pour the cognac over a single large cube of ice. Its coldness underlines the character and aromas of the cognac and highlights the Hennessy know-how. A modern drink for the aperitif.
• Hennessy X.O Over Ice: A drink that can be enjoyed at brunch, during a cocktail party or after dinner. Place several ice cubes in a large wine glass. Pour in the X.O cognac, add a drop of cold water and stir. The ice quickly cools the cognac, revealing the balance of the blend and its subtle spicy notes.
