In Appreciation of Hennessy
Hennessy Cognacs are the most popular and widespread choice for brandy lovers worldwide. Cognac of all types must be made in Cognac, France; otherwise, it’s just brandy. Richard Hennessy, an Irish immigrant to France, founded the House of Hennessy in 1765 and is presently owned by the Moet-Hennessy Louis Vuitton conglomerate.
The Hennessy line of products includes a wide range of Cognacs from basic to elite. Hennessy VSOP balances the two with a flavor that works as an indulgence on its own and as a versatile cocktail ingredient.
The Hennessy brand leads the Cognac market because of its high quality and reputation.
