Description

The Hennessy XO Lunar New Year 2025 edition welcomes the Year of the Snake with a festive 750ml bottle made in France. Because XO is the original Extra Old cognac created by Maurice Hennessy in 1870, this celebratory dress adds occasion to an already iconic pour.

Hennessy XO Lunar New Year tasting profile

XO delivers a rich and layered character built from a wide assembly of eaux de vie. Expect notes of oak, candied fruit, warm spice, and a long, rounded finish. Therefore it rewards slow sipping and suits a milestone toast.

Serving and food pairing

Serve it neat in a tulip glass at room temperature to let the aromatics unfold. However, a single large ice cube can lengthen the experience on a warm evening. In addition, it pairs beautifully with dark chocolate, roasted nuts, and mature cheese for a Lunar New Year table.

Meanwhile, if you want another festive centerpiece, consider the Hennessy Paradis Lunar New Year bottle. Collectors of XO art editions may also like the Hennessy XO Julien Colombier, or browse the full Hennessy cognac range.

Heritage behind the blend

Hennessy has led the cognac category for more than 250 years from its home in the Charente. Because XO set the template for the Extra Old style, it carries real authority in the glass. The Hennessy XO Lunar New Year keeps that pedigree while dressing it for the season. Meanwhile, the festive bottle photographs beautifully on a celebration table or a gift stack. In addition, the 750ml format offers plenty to share, so it suits both an intimate toast and a larger gathering with family and friends.

Why choose the Hennessy XO Lunar New Year

Above all, this release gives a gift ready look to a benchmark cognac. Because festive editions are produced in limited volumes, they rarely return once sold. Secure this Year of the Snake bottle for your own shelf or a memorable present.
