Hennessy VSOP Lunar New Year 2026 750ml
Celebrate the Year of the Horse with a bold, contemporary fusion of world-class blending and modern fine art: Hennessy VSOP Lunar New Year 2026 By Xu Zhen. Marking the annual Lunar New Year collector series, Hennessy collaborates with renowned contemporary Chinese artist Xu Zhen to create a stunning limited-edition presentation that embodies vitality, strength, and forward movement.
Available now at World of Whiskey Shop, this 2026 Limited Edition bottle is adorned with vibrant red and metallic copper-gold artwork inspired by the spirit and motion of the horse. Inside the collector bottle lies the iconic Hennessy V.S.O.P (Very Superior Old Pale) Cognac blend—a harmonious assembly of over 60 selection eaux-de-vie sourced from Cognac’s finest crus. Masterfully aged in handcrafted French oak barrels, this Cognac achieves a flawless balance between rich fruit complexity and warm oak structure.
In the glass, it displays a radiant, dark amber-copper color. The nose opens with an inviting, complex bouquet of fresh apricot, candied fruit, and delicate wildflower honey, layered over subtle notes of sweet vanilla bean and toasted French oak. On the palate, a smooth, voluptuous, medium-to-full-bodied mouthfeel unleashes expressive flavors of ripe orchard fruit, dark cherry, cinnamon spice, and toasted almond, supported by gentle oak tannins and soft cocoa. Bottled at 80 Proof (40% ABV), the finish is long, elegant, and satisfying, slowly subsiding with lingering notes of sweet spice, dried fruit compote, and warm oak warmth.
An extraordinary centerpiece for Lunar New Year celebrations, executive gifting, or luxury Cognac collections, this release is best enjoyed neat, over ice, or in a classic French 75 cocktail. Order your bottle today from World of Whiskey Shop.
