- Description
- Hennessy's Bras Armé, named for its distinctive armed-arm logo and bottled in the 1970s for the Italian market before VS standardisation replaced it, represents a historical variant in the house's evolution. The palate carries the signature Hennessy profile of vanilla, dried fruit, and gentle spice typical of its era, matured in French oak. The texture is approachable and warm, finishing with classic oak influence. A collectible piece of Cognac history for those pursuing vintage Hennessy bottlings.
