Nose: Ripe apricot, generous and welcoming.
Palate: Vanilla and soft oak come together smoothly, with a warm, memorable close.

This is the cognac we hand people who want one bottle that works both ways, poured neat after dinner and mixed over ice at a party.

How It Differs
Against Hennessy V.S, the V.S.O.P is the higher grade, with longer cask ageing behind it. Hennessy gives the V.S fresh toast, roasted almond and brown sugar, with a fresh, floral finish, where this bottle leads with apricot, then vanilla and oak. Against Hennessy X.O, the notes Hennessy gives change to candied fruit, dark chocolate and a long oak finish. The full range sits on our Hennessy page. If you are weighing it against the other house, Martell V.S.O.P Red Barrel is the bottle it gets compared with most.

How to Serve
Hennessy suggests it neat, on ice, on the rocks, or in a long drink. The house builds cocktails on it too, among them an Old Fashioned, a Sidecar, a Cognac Sour and a Negroni.

Ideal for: Chinese New Year reunion tables, a housewarming or a wedding gift, and after-dinner pours that run long.
Pairs with: roast duck, char siu, braised abalone with mushrooms, mutton varuval, and beef rendang.
