James Hennessy XO Cognac 1L

Maison Hennessy has been creating one of the finest cognacs since 1765. With the James Hennessy blend, the Tasting Committee today pays tribute to one of its historic figureheads: a pioneering entrepreneur and accomplished traveler, who always had an innate understanding of the need to explore new horizons.

This is an remarkable cognac that displays beautiful shades of amber with highlights of bronze, and offers layers of smooth, toasty aromas. Silky, yet well structured, this drink expands across the palate with notes reminiscent of blood peach and roasted almonds, while giving way to an outstanding finish. To be enjoyed neat or on ice.

Tasting Notes:

Colour: Beautiful shades of amber punctuated by soft highlights of pink and bronze.

Nose: Suggestions of mild tobacco and light wisps of smoke combine subtly with toasty notes. Hints of roasted almonds intermingle and merge in complete harmony with Madagascar vanilla to produce soft and delicately perfumed notes.

Palate: A palate of elegance and restraint, enhanced by fresher flavors reminiscent of apricot, then pistachio and blood peach. This fine cognac, silky yet well structured, evokes both the suppleness of a finely woven fabric and the airy lightness of a g noise sponge.
