Hennessy: The excellence of French cognac since 1765

Founded in 1765 in Cognac by the Irishman Richard Hennessy, Hennessy embodies the perfect alliance between tradition, innovation, and exceptional craftsmanship. With over 250 years of history, it stands today as the global benchmark for high-end cognac, present in over 160 countries. Inheriting a unique heritage and staying true to its commitment to quality, Hennessy crafts its cognacs from the finest vineyards in the region, mainly sourced from Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne.

Recognized ancestral know-how

Each stage of production — from double distillation in Charentais stills to aging in Limousin oak barrels — is orchestrated with rare precision. Hennessy notably stands out for its Tasting Committee, a unique in-house institution that ensures the consistency of blends every day. Hennessy cognacs thus express the full aromatic richness of their terroir and exhibit exemplary consistency over generations.

An icon of prestige worldwide

As an ambassador of French luxury, Hennessy continually pushes the boundaries of creativity, regularly collaborating with contemporary artists to reinterpret its iconic bottles. Recognized for its exacting standards and elegance, Hennessy embodies a refined way of life where each sip tells a story.
