SKU: 757035
- Country of Origin: France (specifically the Cognac region).
- Alcohol Volume (ABV): 40% (80 proof).
- Sugar Content: Approximately 1.9 g/L to 2 g/L.
Pairing Recommendations:
Hennessy V.S is known for its robust and "exuberant" flavors, which allow it to stand up well to rich or spiced foods. - Seafood: Pairs excellently with steam-cooked lobster or rich dishes like lobster bisque, as the cognac's fruit notes complement delicate seafood flavors.
- Meats: Best matched with crispy pork belly or spiced beef. The acidity and alcohol cut through the fat of the meat, while the oak notes mirror roasted flavors.
- Desserts: Complements dark chocolate mousse, coffee tiramisu, or fruit-based desserts like crème brûlée.
Mixing Recommendations:
Experts from Nestor Liquor and Hennessy suggest its versatility makes it ideal for several styles: - The Classic Sidecar: 2 oz Hennessy V.S, 1 oz Cointreau, and 1 oz lemon juice. Shake with ice and strain into a sugar-rimmed glass.
- Hennessy Ginger: A simple, refreshing highball made by mixing Hennessy V.S with ginger ale or ginger beer and a squeeze of lime.
- Hennessy Berry Mojito: A fruity twist on the classic, using fresh berries, mint, lime juice, and simple syrup.
- Hennessy Margarita: Combines the cognac with tequila, lime, and orange liqueur for a sophisticated, "flavor-packed" version of the classic.
