Hennessy Very Special Cognac, or Hennessy V.S. for short, is an internationally renowned French cognac with an alcohol content of 40 per cent, available in a compact 0.05-litre bottle. As one of the best-known expressions from the long-established Maison Hennessy, the V.S embodies the house’s characteristic style in a particularly handy miniature format. Around 40 carefully selected eaux-de-vie are blended together to create this cognac. The individual distillates are aged in French oak barrels before being blended by the Hennessy blenders to create a harmonious cuvée. The brand has a long history: Richard Hennessy founded Maison Hennessy in Cognac in 1765, thereby laying the foundations for one of the world’s most renowned cognac houses.


The designation ‘Very Special’ denotes the youngest age category within the classic Cognac classification; for Hennessy, however, the careful selection and blending of the various eaux-de-vie is of particular importance. The Hennessy V.S 0.05 l combines the house’s time-honoured cognac-making tradition with a small-format bottle, which is particularly well-suited for those wishing to discover the brand, for tastings or as part of a spirits collection. Despite the compact 50 ml bottle, this bottling offers the classic character of the standard Hennessy Very Special, with its blend of fruit, oak and spicy notes.

Hennessy Very Special can be served neat, on the rocks or as a base for long drinks and cognac cocktails. Culinary pairings include mature cheeses, roasted nuts or hearty meat dishes, whilst dark chocolate, hazelnut desserts or vanilla-flavoured pastries make for excellent sweet accompaniments. Thanks to the handy 0.05 l miniature bottle, this version is also ideal for tastings, as a small gift or for getting to know Hennessy V.S.
