Hennessy Master Blenders Selection

Hennessy Master Blender’s Selection is a series of limited-edition, single-batch cognacs crafted by the Maison Hennessy’s master blenders. These expressions are unique because they are not blended to replicate other Hennessy products but are one-time releases, each with its own distinct flavor profile. The series allows the master blender to showcase creativity and artistry outside the constraints of traditional Hennessy expressions.

Key Highlights
• Limited Edition: Each selection is crafted as a one-time blend and is not reproduced once sold out.
• Single-Batch Cognacs: These are made from eaux-de-vie carefully selected by the master blender, aged and combined to create a unique profile.
• Craftsmanship: Designed to highlight the innovation and expertise of Hennessy’s master blending team.
