THE HISTORY OF HENNESSY V.S.O.P PRIVILÈGE
In 1818, the Prince of Wales, a cognac connoisseur and the future King George IV of Great Britain made a personal request for a “very superior old pale” from the House of Hennessy. The new classification “V.S.O.P”, created by Hennessy as a first for the industry, became a benchmark for all cognac makers as a sign of elevated quality and ageing.
THE BEST WAY TO ENJOY IT
The balance and complexity of Hennessy V.S.O.P Privilège make it incredibly versatile. Drink it neat, over ice or in a classic cognac cocktail that highlights the quality of the spirit, such as the Vieux Carré, the Hennessy Sour, the Sidecar and the Sazerac.
