"True connoisseurs don't drink wine, they taste secrets." Salvador Dalí Difficult to find in this COLLECTOR'S version, launched in 2005 for a short time and in limited quantities, now available only at private auctions! [This is the version released in 2007] Hennessy is an internationally renowned distillery founded in 1765 by Irish military officer Richard Hennessy, and today the House is one of the world's leading cognac producers. For over 250 years, Hennessy has been producing its cognacs in the heart of its native Charente region, and is a company committed to the protection of its terroir. The Hennessy Distillery stands out for its expertise, uniqueness, and excellent know-how, which are not only reflected in its cuvées but are recognized worldwide for their registered certifications, including Very Old Superior Old Pale (VSOP) and Extra Old (XO). With a rich and complex structure, the XO cuvée is composed of an unprecedented and original blend called Extra Old (XO), made with old eaux-de-vie. The XO cuvée is presented in a decanter with a refined design and its color is a beautiful amber with mahogany highlights. Subtle and spicy, the nose seduces with notes of candied fruit. Complex and persistent on the palate, this cognac has a creamy texture that reveals a hint of wild cocoa and woody notes expressed thanks to its long aging. The Paradis Extra Rare cuvée is the epitome of "Pure Passion," with its delicate and sensual flavor, representing Cognac connoisseurs, with their penchant for elegant enjoyment. This spirit is made with more than 100 types of wine (eaux-de-vie) from the finest Cognac vineyards, rigorously selected by Masters from the finest varieties and in the finest conditions. Created by Maurice Fillioux in 1979, the Paradis Extra Rare cognac is a variation of the iconic Hennessy X.O. and expresses the roundness of this blend through its pure and refined design, created by Italian artist Ferrucio Laviani. The nose offers floral notes of dried rose and honeysuckle intertwined with aromas of red fruits and spices. The palate seduces with its elegant and silky texture. It features notes of honey, dried flowers, truffles, and spices that combine with those of cinnamon, cardamom, and fruit to blend harmoniously with aromas of dried rose petals and heather jam. Its finish is powerful and persistent. It is recommended to serve these Cognacs in their pure form in a tulip-shaped crystal glass to enhance the aromas of the essences.
