Hennessy Paradis

Appearance: Superb coppery gold colours.

Aroma: On the nose it exudes floral notes of jasmine and honeysuckle, underpinned by intense notes of red fruit and exquisite spices.

Taste: On the palate, a graceful, silky texture runs all the way through to a flavourful and deep, persistent finish. Honey, dried flowers, truffles and soft spices come to the fore in a melting pot of flavours. Delicate notes of cinnamon, cardamom and preserved fruits give way to perfumes of dried rose petals and sweet briar jam.

Grilled blue lobster tails in a creamy mascarpone sauce are a brilliant match.

For a main course, pair this cognac with slow-cooked guinea fowl dressed with a Sichuan pepper jus.

Finish with something fruity and nutty, such as a nougat glacé with almonds, pistachios and candied fruits

Enjoy neat, in a tulip-shaped tasting glass

Cognac, France. The story of the Hennessy began with one man’s vision. An Irish officer in the service of the King of France, Richard Hennessy foresaw the extraordinary international commercial potential of Cognac’s eaux-de-vie. In 1765, he set up his own business and founded a House that has since met with unequalled and unwavering success.That success is the result of a constant quest for excellence in the creation of exceptional cognacs.
