About this bottle
Hennessy Black is a cognac blend built from young, vivid eaux-de-vie aged in old oak barrels in the Cognac region of France, which keeps its color pale and its style lighter than Hennessy's more traditional VS or VSOP bottlings. The nose leans into jasmine, citrus, and honey, while the palate brings fresh grape and a touch of citrus zest without much oak weight behind it. Bottled at 43% ABV, it was built from the ground up as a mixing cognac rather than a sipping one, which shows in how cleanly it takes to other ingredients. It suits anyone who wants cognac in a cocktail without a heavier, older blend fighting the other flavors.
How to drink Hennessy Black
This one's made for mixing — try it in a Cognac and cola, a Sidecar, or anything that calls for a lighter-bodied brandy base. It holds up fine over ice on its own too, but it won't offer the depth of an XO if you're looking for a slow sipper.
