Hennessy XO Extra Old Cognac Tasting Notes

Nose: A powerful and woody blend, with spicy aromas which are complex, but remain rounded. Figs and plums come to mind.

Palate: This rich Cognac brings together oak and leather, with slightly sweet notes of flower and fruit.

Finish: A well balanced work, with a good sense of pepper and rancio. A masculine XO.

Distillery Information

The dynastic Hennessy family has been dominating the Cognac industry for two and a half centuries. In 1765, Richard Hennessy, an Irish officer serving in Louis XV’s army, set out to create the world’s finest cognac. The refined and highly popularized elixir became a thriving export business, shipping as far as Ireland, Britain, and all throughout Europe.
