Hennessy XO Cognac Year of the Dragon 2024 Lunar New Year Limited Edition 700ml
Why We Love This
Maison Hennessy is delighted to celebrate the 2024 Chinese New Year, the majestic Year of the Dragon, with an extraordinary limited-edition collection inspired by the digital art piece 'Dragon's Odyssey' crafted by visionary Chinese artist Yang Yongliang.
In homage to the dragon, an iconic and significant figure in the Chinese zodiac, Yang Yongliang seamlessly blends traditional drawings with vibrant digital art, infusing life, movement, energy, and fire into a mesmerizing assembly of metallic dragons gracefully dancing amidst waves. Each bottle in this collection is adorned with a colour symbolizing the aspirations for the upcoming year - red for joy and luck, and gold for prosperity.
