Hennessy VS Richard Hennessy 300 Founder's Edition

A Contemporary Homage to a Timeless Legacy

In celebration of the 300th anniversary of its founder's birth, Maison Hennessy unveils the Hennessy V.S Richard Hennessy 300th Founder's Edition—a limited release that bridges centuries of tradition with modern artistry. This special edition pays tribute to Richard Hennessy's journey from his Irish roots in Killavullen, County Cork, to establishing one of the world's most renowned cognac houses in France.

Artistic Collaboration

Renowned Irish artists Conor Harrington and Maser were commissioned to design this commemorative bottle. Harrington's classical portraiture combined with Maser's vibrant street-art aesthetics result in a striking visual narrative. The bottle features a bold red and white striped neck—a nod to the flag of Cork—and a dynamic label that encapsulates Hennessy's dual heritage and forward-thinking spirit.
