In 1870, 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 emblematic icon of the Hennessy Maison. 

Deep and powerful, the eaux-de-vie of this Hennessy X.O cognac are aged in young barrels and marked out by their power and energy, but also by their capacity to achieve a great roundness through time.

Candied fruit tastes gently welcome the palette. With the interesting impression of a powerful, rising heat, the nuanced taste of eaux-de-vie gently matured in oak barrels is slowly revealed. A powerful spicy cognac note tantalizes the lips and palate with its distinct peppery flavour blended with a hint of chocolate.A warm wave rises, crests, and then breaks. There is a strong presence, full and sensual. There is a gradual realization of something extremely familiar. It has the full flavour of a rich, dark chocolate.The powerful ebb and flow of oak notes interwoven with vanilla creates a remarkable experience.The evanescent wood notes leave behind a lengthy, pervasive aftertaste. It seems to echo all of the intricacies of each flavour and sensation that has come before it.
