Hennessey XO Cognac

Still the best cognac for under £100 a bottle, the Hennessey XO is a blend of Eau de Vies that combine to provide the epitome of a cognac drinking experience. A sniff of the glass will make one’s eyes water, and that first sip will burn the lips, warming the throat and instantly evaporating off the tongue like a spectral liquid.

Served in all of the best bars around the world, one would do well to have a bottle of this in their home collection. It goes very well with a cigar, after coffees and petit fours. It deserves to be drunk out of a fine crystal cognac glass.
