Hennessy Master Blender’s Selection No. 1 is a limited edition Cognac created as a tribute to the artistry of the Hennessy blending tradition. Crafted by the eighth generation Master Blender, this release showcases a unique profile achieved through a distinctive single barrel style maturation process using specially selected French oak.

Unlike standard Hennessy expressions, this bottling emphasizes individuality and balance rather than age statements. Each release in the Master Blender’s Selection series is designed to be singular and unrepeated, making No. 1 a discontinued and increasingly hard to find expression.

Smooth yet expressive, this Cognac bridges classic Hennessy character with a modern approach to blending, offering both approachability and depth for enthusiasts seeking something outside the core lineup.
