As the quintessence of Hennessy, Hennessy Very Special is the flagship of the company's incredible distilling art. It is the result of the ambitious selection process of eaux-de-vie with a subtle and refined character, from which a cognac that is a true delight has been produced. The distilling art of Hennessy for Hennessy Very Special. The choice. The eaux-de-vie selected for Hennessy Very Special are extremely delicate but also possess character. They are in a wonderful balance: neither too strong nor too gentle, and they have the potential to develop further throughout their maturation. They captivate with subtly balanced aromas that blend wonderfully with one another over time and retain the typical characteristics of their origin, namely the immediately recognizable aromas of fresh grape and vine blossom. These eaux-de-vie are selected very early, to allow them the necessary time for maturation and the development of their full potential before being used to create one of the most incomparable cognacs in its category. Maturation. The maturation of Hennessy Very Special depends largely on the selection of new oak barrels, which come exclusively from France. They give the cognac its intense expression. The maturation process is guided in the desired direction through the use of partly already used barriques. This ensures the formation of warm and pleasant toasted notes, which create a counterbalance without dominating the overall effect of the blend. It is a very dynamic maturation process, during which the barriques are exchanged very often. The youngest eaux-de-vie are matured for 2 years. During this period, they are exposed to oxygen at regular intervals to support the formation of their typical aromas of crème brûlée and brown sugar. Their vanilla notes give the cognac a creamy taste and emphasize the fruit. Blending. Blending is the final step in the creation of Hennessy Very Special. It is not used to create aromas, but to develop the very special characteristics of the cognac in terms of balance and consistency. The master blender and his tasting committee select certain eaux-de-vie which, during maturation and under optimal conditions in new barriques, have reached the highest point of their expressive power and have fully developed their delicious toasted notes. This basic blend is completed with additional eaux-de-vie from the reserves of the extraordinary House of Hennessy, which, thanks to their fruity or floral style, help create an absolutely perfect composition. Appearance: transparent and bright, a splendid amber tone. Aroma. The initial notes of toasted fresh bread, toasted almonds and brown sugar are followed by a second complementary note of subtle grape aromas. Taste. The aromatic intensity of the cognac is reflected in its tasty, creamy flavor, which surprises with a vanilla dimension. It is rounded off by a particularly fresh and floral aftertaste.
