Hennessy Beauté du Siécle Cognac is one of the most expensive Hennessy bottles in circulation. Only 100 bottles are produced, and a bottle of 1000 mL contains Cognac aged for 80-150 years in French oak barrels. The bronze and aluminum bottle of Hennessy Beauté du Siécle was custom-created by the contemporary French artist Jean-Michel Othoniel.The LOUIS XIII Classic decanter has been the ultimate expression of our finest eaux-de-vie since 1874, an exquisite blend sourced from Grande Champagne terroir, the first cru of the Cognac region. Each drop represents a finely tuned craft passed down from one generation of Cellar Master to the next.
At its simplest, The Drop is a single centilitre (10ml) of pristine blended Louis XIII Cognac presented in a chic, bijou bottle but really it is so much more than that.
The restriction is an important one as guests will want to focus their attention and palates on the drinks at hand, beginning with a sampling of eaux de vie and building to the tasting’s culminating tour de force: Paradis Impérial, an inspired marriage of the company’s most precious Cognac that fetches a price of $3,000 a bottle.

Hennessy becomes international 30 years after that pivotal day in 1765, the first shipment of Hennessy barrels would arrive on the wild shorelines of Colonial America, and 10 years after that those barrels would turn to SX9a.
