Wine Review: Paradis and Richard Hennessy Cognac - Episode 83
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 лип 2011
- At Spitbucket, we've had so much Cognac recently that we felt it was only fair to split them into two episodes!
In this latest installment, Ken joins Renaud de Gironde from Hennessy who has promised to take us through the pointy-end of the Hennessy range, which include the Paradis and Richard Hennessy blends. - Розваги
"you will see another dimension" i would hope so... for 4000 a bottle...
These are two of my favourite Cognac's of all time, I have a few bottles of Paradis but only one bottle of Richard. These are Cognac's to drink on your own or with someone that loves and understands Cognac. I always pour some 15 minutes before I drink it and then nose the glass for 5-10 minutes before drinking it in small sips. Truly amazing Cognac.
its actually really interesting to try and talk about all these different drinks.. of course they
all get you drunk..but the hard work that goes into all of these drinks
is amazing and should be talked about and appreciated..love these videos!!!
I had the Paradis last night for the fist time and im am inclined to head staight for the store to puchase a bottle. The video does no justice for the actual taste it is truely unbelieveable if you have not had the pleasure of a sip of Paradis you must do so ASAP.
Them bottles full of Hennessy is art in itself
Drank Bottle Hennessy Paradis for my birthday. it lasted 2 week was very nice and I shared with friends.Had a Glass of the Richard Hennessy was so Smooth!
$600 a bottle???? Shit it’s $1899 now
Is 1200 is texas
Had a conversation with a prominent liqueur collector and retailer in HK who has been collecting since the early 1980s and been invited to all these big Cognac houses in France. I raised a question about Hennessy Extra from the 70s or earlier he told me when Hennessy introduced the Extra there were very few drinkers and production were small but later replaced it with the lower quality Paradis and then years later re-introduce the same Extra as Richard Hennessy in order to compete with Louis XIII.
Thank-you for the review. I've sampled the Paradis previously, and so can only imagine how sublime is the Richard Hennessy. If I were to ask for anything, it would be for you or your guest to provide more analytical details of what is in the nose and taste. I ask only because while I can recognize and admire the great subtleties of aroma and taste, I don't have the skill and talent to tease apart the components that are making them so great, and for me, that is part of the fun in appreciating great spirits.
Please pass along my thanks to Renaud for this tasting, separated as we are in time and space.
I keep all these apart from VSOP but have to say the Richard Hennessy isn't so much better than XO as expected tbh.
Paradis is my new years drink. Not cheap
Paradis $600 per bottle😂😂😂. I was in China a few years ago and a fellow hotel guest said to me as I was enjoying my Paradis in the hotel lounge, we Chinese love cognac and we are buying every bottle. I came back to Oz and asked my local Dan's man... He agreed. I bought 2 cases then and there... What a little treasure that has turned out to be.
If you can manage a few bottles, do so... Chinese market is going gang busters for these levels of both cognac and whisky.
Its over $1250 now and rising, price more than doubled in 3 years.
im saving up for the paradis after i get my summer job. I absolutely loved the xo, though it was a bit strong it took a glass and after that i couldnt stop. very smooth and vanilla hints. viva la summer
Did you buy it?
@@johanfrenck8819 i bought paradis today after seeing this comment a few days ago. It cost me 2 months rent haha.
Xo is strong as hell not really a fan
You can mix it with whatever you want, some people add a bit of water some might add a small cube of ice however it is recommended to be enjoyed on its own.
Best review!
@thepantstent and he was dressed up to the occasion! You should see some of our other videos.
On the most exclusive lines, I will only purchase direct from distiller/bottler. Reputable retailers have even had the misfortune of purchasing bogus product, and at these price points it's no wonder. Don't look for a bargain. However, Henessey does occasionally offer the same quality blend in a decorative crystal as well as normal bottle at much different prices. I purchase occasional exclusive releases as the silver jubilee, and others when I can verify authenticity. How many casks of 100-200 year old brandy can Hennessey have left to blend with anyway?
one day i shall splash out on some them mighty fine cognacs looks lush
In Sweden that bottle costs around 3300 dollar :P
hi there ! how can store the hennessy?? up or lie down??
Коньяк,супер. Отлично👍
Lol went up in price all of them
i had this before..... (paradis) theyre right.... the flavor does stay in your mouth for a while after you sip.....
5:05 Drinking smoke?? o_O but seriously, I can't wait to try the Paradis !
You've never heard that term before? it's another way of saying that it's very smooth.
One day I will sell one of my kidneys and buy a Paradis.
Remy Martin Louis XIII cost about $3,000 for 750L. What does the Richard Hennessey cost for the same volume?
👍
I Just make do with the XO it does taste nice and a bit of a burn after taste.
+Lei Lei Just tried XO, I'm impressed by its flavor. Can't even imagine the others.
👍👍👍
Does it mix well with redbull?
Agent S With Monster is so much better👌
Is it 40-45 years?
Minimum blend in Richard Hennessy is 40 years or 50 years? Does anyone know?
3:26
Thank you for giving excellent details of Hennessy cognac... I am Hennessy brand promoter in Cochin international airport duty free.
The Paradis use to be aged between 30 to 130 years but recent Paradis only state up to 100 years.
@sobanek1971 Awesome! how much did you pay for it?
botle of Paradis on ebay now :)
love to hang with the guy on the right, hes a regular charlie sheen, now all he needs is a few girls to host with him, anyone that drinks everyday at 11 is ok in my book
I’m only here becoming of the show house of cards they be drinking lots of henny so I had to see
got it as a gift, already sold on ebay for 500USD :) I'd rather to keep it but life is brutal ;)
… ummm thats just regular Hennessey in a fancy bottle 😂
So is it 30 years or 150?? Lol
Вотт этоо даааа класнаиа✅✅
Дами калай?
Is it worth a $1000?
Yes. It is worth every penny.
Id rather have a OE 800
this violent spinning just releases so much alcohol it overpowers any aroma and burns your nose.
Специално Удоволствие за мен.
Ще пробвам Hennessy X.O и честно казано нямам търпение. Обаче другите едва ли някога ще ги опитам. Все пак Paradis е 1,230 лева а Richard Hennessy е 5,500.
1000 dollars for a bottle of liquor come on. Maybe if it cured cancer...
BroskyWhoDatedHoski BroskyWhoDatedHoski am that special day
Some does that's why they cost alot
anyone in uk wanna buy a bottle of richard hennessy?... 1000 ono
Уау
stop talking, lets speak KEN.
Why the fuck would you do such a thing?
that host is a joke..
These two guys ramble too much and don't get to the specifics in a timely manner.
Utter bullshit , XO and VSOP blindfolded I couldn't tell the difference
get good
In the end of the day you are same drunk no matter what you drink. To me drinking is social event. I enjoy company of friends not a drink or showing off.
Have you had different hennessys before..or for that matter different cognacs?? be honest..cause its actually really interesting to try and talk about.. of course they all get you drunk..but the hard work that goes into all of these drinks is amazing and should be talked about and appreciated..
