Hennessy 1887 Vintage Brandy

 
 

4.995,00

This is a historical Hennessy, distilled in 1887 from what might very well have been the last grapes surviving the devastating phylloxera which destroyed almost all of the ancient grape plants in the second part of the 19th century. This Cognac was bottled in 1922 after a 35-year long period of maturation. Both cork and capsule are 100% original but, due to this, shipment of the bottle needs to be done with the utmost care. Upon request we offer re-corking of the bottle which will guarantee further preservation and allow save global shipment.

Description

Hennessy was founded in 1765 by Irishman Richard Hennessy, Captain in the French Army. It took Hennessy just a few years to dominate the market and actually they have never lost their leading position since. Hennessy was the first producer which came with a Extra Old (XO) and they also invented the star-ranking system. In 1971 Hennessy merched with Moët et Chandon forming Moët-Hennessy. After their 1987 merger with Louis Vuton the newly formed company LVMH became one of the largest conglomerates in luxury products. One year later, in 1988, Bernard Arnault purchased a share of LVMH and eventually became the new owner of Hennessy, still world’s largest producer of Cognac.
