Hennessy releases exclusive Father’s Day gift set

French Cognac house Hennessy has launched an exclusive Father’s Day gift set through specialist retailers in the UK.

To celebrate Father’s Day on 20th June, Hennessy has partnered with specialist retailers to offer a Cognac gift set, including a bottle of Hennessy X.O, alongside two limited-edition bespoke tumbler glasses.

The glassware in the set is designed by Baccarat designer Thomas Bastide specially for X.O. With a solid base and modern design. According to the brand, the shape of these glasses “highlights the variety of subtle aromas in Hennessy’s X.O Cognac when served over ice or as a simple serve”.

Created over 250 years ago, Hennessy X.O was popular all over the world, starting with the US in 1870, followed by Asia (Shanghai and Hong Kong) in 1872.

Renaud Fillioux de Gironde, the eighth generation master blender for the Maison Hennessy said: “Hennessy X.O is the Cognac for every occasion. Its timelessness – the fact that its inspiration never changes and never bends to the whims of trends – means that it exists in a realm beyond fashion.

“As time goes by, we have noticed that people are appreciating a wider array of moments for tasting than they ever have before. Its versatility is what I think makes Hennessy X.O so contemporary and relevant today. It is the perfect gift for any refined spirit lover.”

The Hennessy X.O Father’s Day gift set is priced at £154. It is available from early June for a limited time only, whilst stocks last from Master of Malt, The Bottle Club and Majestic stores.
