As the quintessence of Hennessy, Hennessy Very Special is the crowning jewel of the incredible art of the company's distillery. It is the result of an ambitious selection process of balanced eaux-de-vie with a subtle and refined character, from which a cognac has been produced that is a true delight. The art of distillation of Hennessy for Hennessy Very Special is the choice. The selected eaux-de-vie for Hennessy Very Special are extremely delicate but also possess character. They achieve a wonderful balance: neither too strong nor too gentle, and they have the potential to develop further throughout their aging. They captivate with subtly balanced aromas, which blend wonderfully with one another over time and retain the typical characteristics of their origin, namely the immediately recognizable aromas of fresh grapes and vine flowers. These eaux-de-vie are selected very early on, to give them the necessary time for maturation and the development of their overall potential, before being used to create one of the most incomparable cognacs in its category. The aging of Hennessy Very Special largely depends on the selection of new oak barrels, which come exclusively from France. They give the cognac its intense expression. The aging process is guided in the desired direction through the use of partly already used barriques. This ensures the formation of warm and pleasant toasted notes, which create a counterbalance without dominating the overall effect of the blending. It is a very dynamic aging process, during which the barriques are exchanged very often. The youngest eaux-de-vie are aged for 2 years. During this period, they are exposed to oxygen at regular intervals, to support the formation of their typical aromas of crème brulée and brown sugar. Their vanilla notes give the cognac a creamy flavor and accentuate the fruit. Blending is the final step in the creation of Hennessy Very Special. It does not serve to create aromas, but to develop the very particular characteristics of the cognac in terms of balance and consistency. The master blender and his tasting committee select some eaux-de-vie that, during aging and under optimal conditions in new barriques, have reached the peak of their expressive power and have fully developed their delightful toasted notes. This base assembly is completed with additional eaux-de-vie from the reserves of the extraordinary house of Hennessy, which due to their fruity or floral style contribute to creating an absolutely perfect composition. Transparent and bright appearance, a splendid amber hue. The initial notes of toasted fresh bread, toasted almonds, and brown sugar are followed by a complementary second note of subtle grape aromas. The aromatic intensity of the cognac is reflected in its flavorful, creamy taste, which surprises with a vanilla dimension. It is rounded off by a particularly fresh and floral aftertaste.
