Colour
Its wonderful amber colours show a pure and warm intensity, foretelling of an undeniable power to come.
Aroma/Palate
In the mouth, the spices, notes of leather and preserved fruits appear and reappear over and over, returning to emphasise the aromatic complexity of the nose in one magnificent symphony of flavour. The extraordinary persistence of the finish is on-going revelation of the many facets of RICHARD HENNESSY.
Food Matching
To savour the full flavour of this exceptional cognac is a privilege. Take a tulip-shaped taster’s glass, or a small snifter of the finest crystal, ensure the opening of the glass is small, this will guarantee the gradual release of the aromas. According to Talleyrand, famous 18th-century French politician and illustrious customer of Hennessy, to enjoy a cognac such as Richard Hennessy one must “cradle the glass in the palm of one’s hand, swirl the spirit to release its full aroma, lift it to one’s nostrils, inhale deeply and then... set it down and discuss its virtues”.
