A cornerstone of the Hennessy Maison, Hennessy VS is a vibrant and full-bodied cognac that perfectly balances strength and smoothness.

Crafted in 1870 by Maurice Hennessy for his circle of family and friends, Hennessy XO (Extra Old) marked a defining moment in the history of Cognac. It was the first blend to be officially classified as XO, setting the standard for all that would follow. Today, it remains one of the most iconic expressions from the House of Hennessy — a symbol of tradition, craftsmanship, and enduring excellence.
The blend is composed of over 100 eaux-de-vie, drawn exclusively from the Grande and Petite Champagne, Borderies, and Fins Bois crus. Each component has been matured for up to 30 years in French oak barrels, imparting remarkable structure and aromatic richness. The result is a Cognac of remarkable depth, with a layered and evolving character that reveals something new with every sip.
On the nose, Hennessy XO opens with dark dried fruits, prunes, and figs, followed by notes of cinnamon, clove, and a subtle trace of old leather. The palate is powerful yet refined, delivering a rich cascade of flavours — from candied orange peel and toasted oak to cocoa, hazelnut, and warm spices. A silky texture carries the complexity through to a lingering, velvety finish, with hints of black pepper and chocolate that echo long after the glass is empty.
Whether enjoyed neat, with a dash of water, or slowly sipped over ice, Hennessy XO is a Cognac that rewards time and attention. A staple in any serious collection and a fitting choice for momentous occasions, it stands as a lasting tribute to the artistry and heritage of one of France’s greatest Cognac houses.
Chances are there wasn't collaboration, communication, and checkpoints, there wasn't a process agreed upon or specified with the granularity required. It's content strategy gone awry right from the start. Forswearing the use of Lorem Ipsum wouldn't have helped, won't help now. It's like saying you're a bad designer, use less bold text, don't use italics in every other paragraph. True enough, but that's not all that it takes to get things back on track.
The villagers are out there with a vengeance to get that Frankenstein
You made all the required mock ups for commissioned layout, got all the approvals, built a tested code base or had them built, you decided on a content management system, got a license for it or adapted:
This is quite a problem to solve, but just doing without greeking text won't fix it. Using test items of real content and data in designs will help, but there's no guarantee that every oddity will be found and corrected. Do you want to be sure? Then a prototype or beta site with real content published from the real CMS is needed—but you’re not going that far until you go through an initial design cycle.
