Hennessy XO Limited Edition by Jean-Michel Othoniel

Hennessy XO has long been a symbol of depth, richness, and craftsmanship. In this limited edition, French artist Jean-Michel Othoniel reimagines the iconic bottle with a sculptural, jewel-like design – echoing the brilliance and complexity of the liquid within. While the outside dazzles, the inside remains true to its legacy: a powerful, velvety, and timeless Extra Old cognac, crafted for those who appreciate refined intensity.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Rich and intense, with layers of dried fruits, figs, prunes, and candied orange peel. Beneath that, notes of chocolate, leather, cinnamon, and delicate floral touches.

Palate

Powerful and full-bodied on the attack. Flavors of raisin bread, roasted nuts, cocoa, clove, and tobacco are beautifully balanced with soft vanilla and honey. A mouthfeel that is both luxurious and multidimensional.

Finish

Long and majestic, with lingering warmth and complexity. Wood, spice, and a refined dark chocolate bitterness echo for minutes. A truly regal cognac – refined, structured, and unforgettable.

Hennessy

Hennessy – The Emperor of Cognac.

When it comes to cognac, you simply can’t ignore Hennessy. Founded in 1765 by Irishman Richard Hennessy, a former officer in the French army, the house has grown into one of the most prestigious and influential cognac producers in the world. With over 250 years of history, Hennessy is not just a pioneer, but a true icon in the world of luxury spirits.

What makes Hennessy stand out is its unwavering dedication to craftsmanship and quality. From the careful selection of grapes to the art of distilling and aging in French oak barrels—every step is carried out with precision and passion. Hennessy’s cellar masters pass their knowledge down from generation to generation, and you can taste that legacy in every drop.

Hennessy offers a wide range of expressions, from the accessible and lively Very Special (VS) to the refined V.S.O.P, the rich and complex X.O, and the ultra-exclusive Paradis and Richard Hennessy. Each expression has its own personality, but they all carry the brand’s signature elegance and depth.

What’s more, Hennessy has mastered the balance between tradition and innovation. From collaborations with artists and fashion houses to their high-profile partnership with the NBA, the brand appeals to a younger, global audience without ever losing sight of its roots.

In short: Hennessy is more than just a drink. It’s a piece of French heritage, a symbol of style and sophistication, and an absolute must-have for any cognac enthusiast.
