Hennessy’s Crown Jewel:

7 Reasons To Enjoy The Hennessy Paradis Impérial

By Tien Chew

The House of Hennessy has always incorporated fine craftsmanship into each and every bottle of fine cognac that gets made. Their love, dedication to their craft and spirit of innovation has always led the brand to create new and exciting expressions of their fabled cognac.

The Hennessy Paradis Impérial is a culmination of a long list of variables that go into making this the crown jewel for the maison.

Hennessy’s current Master Blender, Yann Fillioux, comes from a family that has served as Master Blenders for the maison for seven generations, granting Fillioux unparalleled knowledge and skill in both his chosen field and that of Hennessy’s.

In honour of seven generations of the Fillioux family that served the House, here are seven reasons you need to try this exceptional cognac.

1. The Utmost Precision

To ensure Hennessy Paradis Impérial is exceptional from vine to glass, the maison masterfully selects only 10 out of 10,000 eaux-de-vie from any given harvest. Identifying and nurturing these selection requires both exceptional talent and expertise in the field, something only the Master Blender can provide.

2. Just The Right Amount Of Time

Time is undoubtedly a spirit’s ally and knowing how to age fine eaux-de-vie to its very best is a skill in itself. To know when each component is ready and perfectly suited to go into Hennessy Paradis Impérial is what makes this cognac the very best.

3. Seven Generations Of Mastery

The creator behind the Hennessy Paradis Impérial is the seventh generation Master Blender from the maison, coming from a long line of family members that have each served as Master Blenders themselves. Only through his amazing senses and heritage is he able to create such a phenomenal spirit.

 

4. The Pinnacle Of Finesse

Without finesse, Hennessy Paradis Impérial would not have been able to be. The use of mature oak casks, which contain fewer tannins, was used to preserve the refined qualities of the rare eaux-de-vie, resulting in an elegant cognac with a celadon-tinged golden hue lighter than that of traditional cognacs.

5. The Taste Of The Top

This fine cognac features a light structure and an absolutely delicate yet persistent finish characterised by floral notes that evoke sensations of a pure and crisp spring day edged with a smoky-spicy accent. 

6. More Than A Science

This is blending at its very finest, an art form in itself that transcends science. The bottle is a statement from the House of Hennessy, showcasing all of the Master Blender’s finest and greatest skill and know-how. This is a cognac of absolute subtlety and represents the apex of this art.
