The house was founded in 1765 and is based in Cognac, France. It's a blend of over 40 eaux-de-vie drawn from all four of the region's premier crus: Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies, and Fins Bois. The youngest eau-de-vie in the blend is aged a minimum of two years in French oak, and the blend as a whole typically runs older. The result is a bold, spice-forward cognac with more oak character than most entry-level bottlings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProducer: Jas Hennessy \u0026amp; Co., Cognac, France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlend: 40+ eaux-de-vie from all four Cognac crus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAging: Minimum 2 years in French oak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eABV: 40% (80 Proof)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNose: Toasted almond, vanilla, apple, citrus zest, and white pepper, with a subtle floral note\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePalate: Toasted oak, nutmeg, black pepper, and baked apple, with caramel and brown sugar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Moderately long, with lingering cinnamon, spice, and a touch of vanilla\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eRugged and assertive rather than soft, Hennessy VS holds its own in mixed drinks where lighter cognacs can get lost.
