Description

Hennessy XO Marc Newson Edition II

To continue the legacy of this exclusive collection, Hennessy have released the second Marc Newson Hennessy XO. The bottle is very much a fine example of Marc Newson’s style of design; with smooth geometry and an absence of sharp or cutting edges. The ‘corrugated’ effect on a classic Hennessy XO decanter has turned heads in the design world, as it simultaneously magnifies and reflects the light, and enhances the sensory elements of this spirit. Newson crafted the bottle having been inspired by the furrows dug in the soil of vineyards, and believes that this is the genesis of creating Cognac. The end result is a more vivid focus on the color of the Cognac. This is the second edition following the Hennessy XO Marc Newson Limited Edition I. 

The Hennessy Marc Newson Second Edition Cognac, is a fine assemblage of eaux-de-vie aged up to 70 years, and this is the second in line to wow Cognac fans worldwide. The design brief behind Hennessy certainly fits the Hennessy XO Cognac, which is smooth, complex and iconic. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to bolster your personal Cognac collection - these are guaranteed to sell out fast.

How to enjoy the Marc Newson Limited Edition II

This is a Cognac to be enjoyed by all audiences of Cognac drinker. Whether you are trying Cognac for the first time, or are somewhat seasoned, you can drink it on ice, neat or with a cigar.

About Hennessy Cognac

You may think, that with Hennessy’s ability to innovate and push boundaries, they are a thoroughly ‘modern’ Cognac brand. This is a large part of their immense success and influence. The very French brand based in the Charente region, in fact, dates all the way back to 1765 - to Ireland - but have managed to shapeshift enough times to remain more relevant than ever before - with current Master Blender Renaud Fillioux. Their range of uber-trendy products is ever expanding, and their marketing campaigns all the more captivating. There is no doubt that ‘Henny’ culture is alive and kicking: both Cognac and a fifth of Hennessy are mentioned in what seems like hundreds of songs.
