Hennessy VSOP Privilege Cognac (375mL)

About Hennessy VSOP Privilege Cognac (375mL)
In 1859, the Prince of Wales, (King George IV of Great Britain), decreed that Hennessy create a “very superior old pale cognac,” this designation is now used across the entire industry. As the world’s first, and most favorited V.S.O.P’s, a blend of over 60 eau-de-vie are combined to create a harmonious blend of flavors. This masterful art of blending attests to the enduring expertise of the Hennessy Master Blenders.
Hennessy sources its grapes from the earth surrounding the famous unique Charente River; Ugni Blanc grapes, which are light and fruity. After being distilled using a double copper pot technique, the “eau-de-vie” is laid to rest in French oak casks. A natural balance of strength and smoothness with a long-lasting finish bottled at 40% ABV, Hennessy Privilège is aged for at least four years in Limousin casks. The V.S.O.P features notes of vanilla, clove, cinnamon, and candied fruit.

About Cognac
Cognac is a type of brandy produced in the Cognac region of France.
Because the French take it very seriously, there are numerous rules cognac makers have to follow not to fall “short” into the brandy category.
 
The white wine from the specific grapes (Ugni blanc) has to be doubly distilled in a copper pot still before being aged for at least two years in oak casks from which the wood can only come from two specific forests in France (Limousin or Tronçais).
 
Depending on the age, there are three types of cognac, the youngest V.S. (Very Special), V.S.O.P. (Very Superior Old Pale), and the X.O. (Extra Old)
