Discover the meaning of these codes which make Hennessy V.S.O.P. the legend it is, and appreciate their stories.

The Codes of Hennessy V.S.O.P.

The Grapes: the symbol of the vineyards.

The “Bras Arme”: The emblematic “bras armé” reflects the long history of Hennessy. It has been part of the Hennessy seal for more than 2 centuries. Now engraved in the glass, it emphasizes the constant search of quality.

“1817”: is the date when the legend of Hennessy V.S.O.P began. On October 7th, 1817, the future King George IV of England asked the House of Hennessy to supply him with a special cognac.

The Copper Colour: The new colours of this collector are meant to pay tribute to the heritage of Hennessy V.S.O.P. They add more elegance and style to the carafe. The copper colour is a reminder of the pot stills.

The New Silhouette: a reinterpretation of the original iconic V.S.O.P bottle from 1954, has been recently designed by the automobile designer Chris Bangle. With a carefully designed optical effect, the front of the carafe evokes a pyramid perspective, discrete but structured, suggesting an upward vanishing point as if a vertical thrust is about to raise it toward the heavens.

The Hennessy V.S.O.P. Kyrios will be available in Malaysia from 28 January onwards, exclusively at selected Jusco & Chinese restaurants nationwide, and will debut in all major clubs and entertainment outlets this March. For more details and information, please visit www.fb.com/hennessymalaysia
