Tasting Notes from Celtic Whiskey Shop and Wines on the Green
Nose
The nose brings to mind the freshness of the first flowers of summer. Subtle notes of freshly cut grass, jasmine and orange blossom play amongst each other in a bouquet of quite remarkable intensity.
Palate
The palate is a joyous reflection of the wonderful floral harmony found on the nose; a lightly smoky note appears, complemented by a gentle waft of spice, all building to a sumptuous finish.
Colour
Light amber with hints of pale celadon green.

FAQs
Hennessy VS typically retails from €40 to €51 for a standard 70cl bottle. Hennessy VSOP sits between €55 and €70. Hennessy XO, the premium core expression, ranges from €200 to €250. Hennessy Paradis and Richard Hennessy Cognacs command €1300 and several thousand euros respectively. As the world's best selling Cognac brand with over 50% global market share, Hennessy pricing reflects both genuine quality at higher tiers and strong brand equity at every level.
Hennessy VS performs best as a cocktail base in a Sidecar, French Connection, or Hennessy Sour, where its young fruit and light oak character benefits from citrus structure. Hennessy VSOP can be appreciated neat in a tulip glass, where the dried apricot, vanilla, and baking spice profile develops with gentle warming. XO should be reserved for neat drinking, where the complexity of the rancio, dark chocolate, and aged oak character justifies the price of the pour.
Yes. Hennessy is a Cognac, which is a legally protected category of brandy from the Cognac appellation of Charente, France. Cognac is produced from specific grape varieties, primarily Ugni Blanc, distilled twice in Charentais copper pot stills, and aged in French Limousin or Tronçais oak barrels. All Cognac is brandy, but not all brandy is Cognac. Hennessy, founded in 1765 by Irish born Richard Hennessy, is the world's largest Cognac producer.
No. Hennessy is a Cognac, a category of French brandy distilled from grapes, not a whiskey. Whiskey is a grain based spirit, distilled from a fermented mash of malted barley, corn, rye, or wheat. Hennessy is distilled from Ugni Blanc grapes in the Cognac appellation of France and aged in French oak barrels. The confusion may arise from the Irish surname of the founder, Richard Hennessy, who was born in County Cork but established his Cognac house in France in 1765.
Hennessy is the world's largest Cognac producer, founded in Cognac, France in 1765 by Irishman Richard Hennessy. The house produces a range of Cognacs from VS to Richard Hennessy, all made from Ugni Blanc grapes grown within the Cognac appellation, double distilled in traditional Charentais copper pot stills, and aged in French oak barrels in cellars along the Charente River. Hennessy accounts for over 50% of global Cognac sales by volume.
No, in any meaningful sense. Irish Mist is a whiskey liqueur made with Irish whiskey, honey, herbs, and clover, bottled at 35% ABV. The relatively high alcohol content prevents microbial spoilage. An opened bottle stored correctly at room temperature away from direct light will remain in acceptable condition for several years, though the volatile aromatic character will gradually diminish. For optimal drinking quality, consuming within two to three years of opening is recommended.
