The Hennessy XO is blended from more than 100 eaux de vie specially selected from the four premier growing areas of Cognac.  The Eaux De Vie are aged between 10 and 70 years to give the Hennessy XO its manly character.

The Hennessy XO is a masculine cognac with powerful, complex and intense flavours. Arguably the best in its class and an all-time favourite by manly and complex characters.

The Hennessy XO was awarded a Silver Medal at the 2010 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
