In 1865, inspired by a decorative handle of his offi ce window, Maurice Hennessy created the now-famous star symbol that he would use to classify his Cognacs. Thus was born the 3- Star Cognac, better known today as Hennessy VS which is a complex blend of more than forty eaux-de-vie (brandy parcels) from the four premier growing areas of the Cognac region.

A warm and delicate Cognac, Courviosier VSOP is considered to be one of the finest produced. A complex aroma of spice and oak, it then opens on the palate to reveal its true depth with almonds, vanilla and floral notes.

The Maker With over 250 years of expertise, Hennessy is renowned worldwide for its dedication to the art of cognac-making. The House of Hennessy, established by Richard Hennessy in 1765, meticulously selects, ages, and blends the eaux-de-vie that form the heart of each of its cognacs. Hennessy holds one of the most extensive reserves of eaux-de-vie in the world, ensuring that each bottle embodies the heritage, precision, and unparalleled quality for which it is celebrated. Today, Hennessy continues to craft prestigious cognacs under the guidance of an expert blending team, maintaining a reputation built on craftsmanship and innovation. Hennessy’s philosophy revolves around exceptional quality, precision, and tradition. The journey from grape to bottle is a carefully orchestrated process, beginning with the selection of the finest Ugni Blanc grapes, which are fermented into wine and then distilled twice in traditional copper stills. This creates the eaux-de-vie that form the base of all Hennessy cognacs. Aged in oak barrels, the eaux-de-vie mature and develop complexity, with Hennessy’s Tasting Committee rigorously selecting the finest spirits for blending. The blending process is a careful art, with Hennessy’s master blenders combining eaux-de-vie from various years to create a perfectly balanced and harmonious flavour profile.
