Hennessy is one of the Big Four cognac producers, alongside Martell, Remy Martin and Courvoisier. The business was founded in Charente by Irishman Richard Hennessy in 1765 after a military career in the French Army. The Hennessy brand was registered as Jas. Hennessy & Co. in 1813 by Richard Hennessy’s son James, who appointed Jean Fillioux as his Master Blender, a position that has been held by Fillioux’s descendants for seven generations since. 

James Hennessy invented the VSOP classification in 1817 and his son Maurice Hennessy later introduced the star rating system for Cognac in 1865 and invented the XO category in 1870. In 1971 Kilian Hennessy oversaw the company’s merger with Moet & Chandon to create Moet-Hennessy, which today is jointly owned by parent company LVMH and Diageo.

DISCLAIMER

Although a condition report is normally included in the Lot description, we do recommend viewing/close inspection prior to placing any bids. If this is not an option and you have questions beyond the offered description and images, please use the form below "Ask A Question" to make specific enquiries or to receive a more in-depth condition report. Otherwise, Lots will be sold as seen and described.
Please note: due to the various ages of bottles, corks and their seals, condition of liquid is at the buyer's discretion. And no claim can be lodged against failure/leakage in transit.All bottles are checked by our whisky specialists Wayne & Harrison Ormerod prior to any auction. We do not auction opened bottles so therefore all items are sealed unless stated under certain circumstances where seals were never issued by the producer.
No item is deemed new, however many items are generally in good condition. When this is not the case, we aim to mention any faults in the description. The images supplied are of the actual item you will receive. If the filling level of the liquid is not visible in the images provided, we aim to indicate the current position in the description. If the filling level is impossible to determine, such as with ceramics decanters, we will provide an overall weight of the decanter in KG. Our filling level guideline can be found here.
All information in this listing is provided to the best of our knowledge including when we chose to date the age of a bottle. If you are unhappy with the listing or believe there is an error/discrepancy, you should notify us immediately and we will address the Lot accordingly. Placing a bid confirms you have checked the Lot and are satisfied.
