Hennessy Paradis (70cl, 40%)

Hennessy Paradis is a Cognac from France, made from a blend of over 100 rare eaux-de-vie aged for decades. It is distilled in traditional copper pot stills and aged in French Limousin oak barrels. The nose shows aromatic floral notes, dried fruit, honey and delicate spices; the palate is silky smooth with layers of jasmine, candied orange, cinnamon and soft oak; the finish is long and elegant with lingering sweetness and subtle spice. It was first created in 1979 by Master Blender Maurice Fillioux. It is best enjoyed neat in a tulip glass, and can be paired with fine dark chocolate or aged cheeses.
