Produced in Cognac by Hennessy, this expression represents the entry point of one of the world's most recognised cognac producers. "VS" (Very Special) indicates that the eaux-de-vie used in the blend have been aged for a minimum of two years in French oak, though many components are older. The style is built for approachability, offering a lively and fruit-forward profile. Hennessy VS Cognac is created from a wide selection of eaux-de-vie sourced across the Cognac region, then matured in oak barrels to develop structure and integration. Careful blending ensures consistency, with emphasis on freshness, vibrancy, and balance rather than heavy oak influence. It is widely used both for neat drinking and in cocktails due to its versatility.
