Hennessy VSOP Year of Horse art of Xu Zhen 750ml

Hennessy V.S.O.P Year of the Horse is a 2026 Lunar New Year limited edition of Hennessy's V.S.O.P cognac, dressed in artwork by contemporary Chinese artist Xu Zhen for the occasion. The cognac inside is the standard Hennessy V.S.O.P — a blend of eaux-de-vie aged in Hennessy's Cognac, France cellars, one step below X.O in the house's age hierarchy. Expect toasted almond, dried apricot and vanilla on the nose, a smooth, balanced palate, and a moderate, warming finish. It's a gifting-forward edition, more accessible in both price and style than the house's older expressions while still carrying real cognac character.

How to drink Hennessy V.S.O.P Year of the Horse

Neat in a tulip glass is the classic serve, though V.S.O.P is forgiving enough to take a single large cube if you prefer it slightly opened up. It also works in a Sidecar if you'd rather use it in a cocktail than sip it solo.
