To Hennessy X.O. is a cognac from 1870, when Maurice Hennessy created Hennessy X.O for his circle of friends and introduced a new style of cognac. Hennessy X.O is the original, the iconic symbol of the Hennessy Maison. Deep and powerful, the eaux-de-vie of this Hennessy X.O cognac is aged in young barrels which enhance their strength and energy, but also their ability to achieve great rounding over time in such beverages.

Character: The palate is warmly embraced by flavors of candied fruits. The perception of a strong spicy note of cognac tempts the lips and palate with a distinct peppery taste, intertwined with a note of chocolate. There is the gradual discovery of something very familiar. It is the rounded taste of rich, dark chocolate. The evolving oak notes leave a long, omnipresent finish. Seemingly endless, it echoes all the subtle nuances of every flavor and sensation that preceded it.
