Hennessy VSOP Privilege was created to suit all occasions. The popular cognac can be enjoyed ""on the rocks"", as a long drink or, still more creatively, as an ingredient in a cocktail. It has an initially spicy-sweet bouquet with hints of vanilla and accents of clove and cinnamon. This is followed by the subtle toasted notes of oak barrel maturation. On the palate it has a fine balance of strength and finesse - giving it a harmonious blend of maturity and power. This composition is softened by the character of fresh grapes through into its long-lasting finish.
