Description:

Blended with over 100 eaux-de-vie from a recipe dating back to 1870, Hennessy X.O. Cognac is the Cadillac of the cognac world. The X.O. namesake stands for extra old due to the extensive aging process, which lasts up to 30 years. Perfect for special occasions or business gifts, this premier cognac is rich, robust and complex with layers of flavors that appear with each passing second.

The dark amber color hints at the divine tastes you're about to uncork. With candied fruit, cocoa, spices and pepper at the helm with a smooth, long-lasting finish, Hennessy X.O. Cognac is an adventure that takes your taste buds to places they've never been. To top it off, there's a rising sense of warmth that reaches its climax just as you're ready to take your next sip.

If you're a cognac aficionado, there's no better way to enjoy Hennessy X.O. Cognac than on its own. It's really the only way to get the full breadth of flavors and its delicate mix of old and modern that's nearly 150 years in the making. Two fingers neat is the traditional method, but there's nothing wrong with throwing in an ice cube, a splash of water or a touch of sparkling water.

Unlike other types of cognac, Hennessy X.O. is seemingly wasted with mixers, so avoid the temptation to throw anything other than water into the mix. Pure and unadulterated is the only way to take this down, and you'll have no regrets by passing on the extras.
