The image, which contains two concentric circles, uses the stunning impact of shades of red and blue.
The resulting form is an artistic representation of the craftsmanship that goes into creating Hennessy cognac. The two circles are representative of the double distillation process, the age-old process that takes place within copper stills. The ship navigating across the lake is laden with the gift of Hennessy cognac, and the vessel arrives in the heart of China right at the time of the Lunar New Year, with all the hope and promise that this brings. To further comprehend the image, you need to understand that the ancient Chinese saw the world as a flat earth under a dome-shaped sky.
The natural world is depicted by the images of the boar, the crane, and goldfish. All of this comes together to represent the natural circle of life, and the hopes and dreams this beautiful cycle brings with it.
Shanghai-born artist, Guangyu Zhang, is certainly a rising star. His work has been displayed around the globe, including at the Tate Britain in London, and at solo exhibitions throughout Hong Kong and China. His aim when creating this image for Hennessy was to translate the feeling he found in Cognac into one of color and sense. Hennessy Cognac is created thanks to the passion of eight generations of master blenders. The XO version of his art features on the dream-like presentation box that the embossed bottle is housed in.
With complete freedom to experiment with new blends, he is able to create singular batches that will never be repeated. Like its predecessors, the Hennessy Master Blend No4 comes in a modern bottle featuring a squared-off neck, wooden cork stopper and a white label with blue text. To this end, the design showcases the faces of various musicians, artists, and activists who are actively working to promote creativity within their communities.
VHILS experiments with various elements in his bottle design, with the use of acid, bleach and, ink, as well as different mediums. The artist works with hammers, chisels, drills, and even explosives to manipulate steel, stone and wood.
The finished effect of the Hennessy by VHILS design is rather striking, with black and yellow tones of many partially obscured faces, that also references the colors and tones of a well-matured Cognac. Well, for those who know their artists, then his is likely to be a familiar name.
This talented young man literally exploded onto the scene in , when he exhibited at the London, Cans Festival. His real name is Alexandre Farto, and he is well-known for working in many different mediums, such as concrete, plaster and oxidized metals.
As with all of these artist-collaborated limited editions, the cognac within the bottle is the regular Hennessy VS.
Of course, this is not a product that collectors will buy to drink. Rather, it will be one to add to the already distinguished lineup of such bottles. And this is tantamount to how great a blend it really is. What makes this cognac so very remarkable is that since its inception the quality has remained unaltered. He uses projection mapping and digital fabrication in his designs.
This art stands for the very same values as Hennessy — history sliding smoothly into modern times, and further into the future. Simply combine all of this apart from the orange twist and gold leaf garnish in a mixing glass over ice, stir, and strain into a rocks glass. Squeeze the orange twist juice over the top and garnish it with the gold leaf. This addition to the Privilege collection is yet another eye-catching bottle from the cognac giant in collaboration with boundary-pushing artists.
This latest work of art has been designed by contemporary artist, John Maeda. Maeda is an American designer, technologist, and author whose work illustrates when art meets tech.
The bottle is a metallic deep rose gold color, with a label that features contrasting red, yellow, and blue shades in a striking pattern. It is the bottle and packing that is limited edition, and so definitely one that collectors will be eager to get their hands on. As the name suggests, this is the perfect cognac for creating your favorite mixed drinks or cocktails. The decanter is a similar shape to that of the traditional Fine de Cognac, however a metallic color palette is used with offset diamond paneling.
It is this detail that perfectly complements the orange trademark color of the original design, whilst giving it a stylish and contemporary twist. Hennessy collaborated with Marc Newson to create the iconic XO decanter, and so invited the internationally acclaimed designer to reimagine his original design and create this stunning new variation.
For this XO limited edition, Marc Newson has used a subtle gold color with hues of rose, to create a harmonious whole of light, design and assemblage.
As distinctive as a work of modern architecture, the design with the new rose gold elements amplifies the blend inside. These striations are perhaps the most daring design elements ever incorporated on the iconic Hennessy XO decanter.
O decanter. When they catch the light, they magnify the blend — its color and sensorial qualities. To reinforce the modern spirit of the new Hennessy XO decanter, Marc Newson and Hennessy went beyond the usual confines of spirit bottle design and created an innovative gift box.
To dramatize the fusion between the blend and the glass bottle, Newson designed a clear transparent gift box in injected plastic that perfectly mirrors the shape of the bottle itself and required cutting-edge manufacturing.
After all, creating cognac by volume calls for a very different production method to that of the craft creator. The Hennessy Master Blend No3 is the first in the range to be created by 8th generation cellar master of the house, Renaud Fillioux de Gironde. Of course, this is the whole idea of the Master Blender range of cognacs. Each one has its own unique character; a blend that, once created in a strictly limited run, will never again be replicated.
No3 will appeal to both connoisseurs and hipsters. The bottle itself is pleasing to the eye, and the liquor is intended to be enjoyed in so many ways - drink it neat, or over ice. This is a delightful limited edition offering from the number one cognac producer. The regular and much loved XO bottle is presented in a striking gift box that transforms into an elegant ice bucket and also comes with a detachable lid that acts as a stand for your bottle along with a pair of ice tongs.
The bottle for the renowned limited edition VS series from Hennessy is designed by artist, JonOne. The project also includes a deluxe gift set by the artist, which features a super fun paint tin to carry the extra-large 1.
We absolutely love the colorful design and packaging. John worked closely with musician Kaki King and illustrator Giorgia Lupi and the trio was involved in every stage of the creative project. Together they traveled to Cognac to distill their very personal assemblage from eaux-de-vie with music, design and art. John Maeda is a leading global digital and artistic visionary, with a goal that reflects that of Hennessy: A fervent desire not to be alone in their respective industries, but to be remembered worldwide.
The trio not only mixed their innovative approaches but also collaborated to blend an exquisite selection of 7 eaux-de-vie to produce something really special. When you try this limited edition, strength and gentleness combine to create an enchanting taste symbiosis. It is followed by the softer properties of freshly squeeze grapes. Finally, the long-lasting finale surges.
What makes the VSOP even more exclusive is the unique look of the bottle. At the same time, the boundaries between the two areas are blurring: John's creative spirit is combined with Giorgia's detailed illustrations and Kaki's musical ability to let a visual keyboard blossom. After visiting Cognac and Hennessy's vineyards, Kaki recorded her experiences in a song text.
Likewise, their insights into the knowledge that goes into the production of Hennessy Cognac. The finished song has beats. Each stroke for a year from Hennessy's savoir-faire. The illustrator Giorgia took these song notes and pressed them together as if she were pressing Ugni Blanc grapes for eaux-de-vie.
Its long, thin strips are borrowed from the wood from Hennessy's oak barrels, in which this special cognac matures. The arrangement of bright colors on the bottle label reproduces the 7 eaux-de-vie in the VSOP. An honorable tribute to this design era that is transforming the 21st century.
The elegant copper color nods to the traditional techniques used in cognac production. They fill the gap between modern art and traditional heritage. This limited edition offering from Hennessy includes a white pearlescent version of the classic XO bottle, accompanied by a pair of elegant tumblers and all wrapped up in a striking presentation box.
The whole concept of this boxed set is to challenge consumers to enjoy their cognac in a different manner, and as the name and design suggest, this means over ice. Yes, I agree to the Privacy Policy. Martin Teo. Share this article.

In-between the fruits are also lasting tastes of cinnamon, vanilla, cloves, and nutmeg. Subtle and brief tastes of leather, tobacco, ginger candy and ginseng appear at the end. An enjoyable Cognac due to its being complex, delicate and balanced. In my experience, old Cognac usually gives off a lot of rancio notes. Maybe the 30 years mentioned above is just the oldest Cognac used in the blend? Still, it seems like the components of this are well-aged.
