As a brand Hennessy has been a top producer of Cognac since 1765, which is 250 years of success. Hennessy X.O was crafted in 1870 by Maurice Hennessy as a fine treat for his inner circle of friends. The result was the birth of a new style of cognac that possessed a much more complex flavor profile. Hennessy X.O is blended from a staggering 100 different eaux-de-vies. This unique blend of brandies distilled from different fruit is what gives Hennessy X.O its unmatched complexity. All 100 of these eaux-de-vies are aged to perfection, with some of them aged for over 30 years. This long-term dedication to excellence is the reason this brand has been around as long as America has been a country. The taste contains hints of several fruits as well as a subtle finish of cocoa. This award-winning blend is sure to make your taste buds tingle.
