2015: Hennessy celebrated its 250th anniversary. Hennessy’s sublimeness resides in a heritage of eight generations that have succeeded one another at the head of this Cognac-based manufacturer through two families: the Hennessys and the Filliouxs, present on five continents. The brand has never ceased to pass down the best of itself. Symbol of the height of the art of selection at Hennessy, Paradis Impérial is at the forefront of this unique craftsmanship. The master blender has selected the finest eaux de vie with uncanny precision. No surprise then to see that today, this same master blender is setting up shop in the Precision Gallery at the Bristol in Paris.
From now until March 31, 2018, Hennessy is teaming up with the Bristol in Paris to imagine and create a tasting salon with “precision” as the anchoring concept. One of their most important shared values crowns Hennessy Paradis Impérial, a blend with the manufacturer’s most rare composition yet. Hennessy’s tasting committee paid special attention to this cognac’s unique refinement, yielded from an assembly of eaux de vie from the 19th and 20th centuries.
In the Precision Gallery at the Bristol in Paris, an encounter between this beverage and various dishes is being celebrating, with Hennessy Paradis Impérial and the rigorous cuisine of Eric Frechon. His encounter with Renaud Fillioux de Gironde, Hennessy’s master blender, led to the creation of six recipes illustrating the tasting marvels involved in each one’s craft. This is an immersive experience – an experience like none other based on perfection and the most accomplished work when it comes to understanding the affinities between taste and flavors.
