Hennessy Fine de Cognac: The Angels' Share by Nadya Bertaux

Hennessy Fine de Cognac The Angels Share by Nadya Bertaux
For the holiday season, the artist Nadya Bertaux and Hennessy have joined forces to give the Hennessy Fine de Cognac bottle a completely new gift box.

Nadya&'s work on the box takes its inspiration from a combination of her own work and the development process of the cognac.

Through her creation Nadya Bertaux evokes the mysterious evaporation of the eaux de vie during the cognac production cycle, which has the poetic name "the angels&' share".

This gift box symbolises this mysterious phenomenon, and the series of strips that she makes allow us a glimpse of the warm, amber colours of the cognac.

Hennessy Fine de Cognac is a delicate cognac, the fruit of the harmonious blend of some sixty eaux-de-vie from the four premier grape-growing regions of the cognac area.

The different eaux-de-vie of which it is composed have aged for between 4 and 10 years in red oak casks that have enriched it with delicate aromas.

Hennessy Fine de Cognac is distinguished by its finesse and its woody notes, in addition to the elegance and purity of its robe with glints of amber.

Its very well-balanced nose suggests a promise of softness, with a light, very subtle, oak finish.

On the palate, it reveals aromas evocative of brioche and grilled almonds before opening out into a final bouquet rich in notes of mild, honeyed spices.
