Lunar New Year Limited Edition Designed by William Shen of RAXXY, Very Superior Old Pale Cognac, 80 Proof
Hennessy welcomes the Year of the Goat 2027 with a collectible Lunar New Year limited edition of its V.S.O.P Privilège, designed by William Shen, founder and creative director of the RAXXY fashion house. Shen drew on the traditional blessing "San Yang Kai Tai" ("Three Rams Bring Prosperity") and created three geometric goat designs across the collection. The V.S.O.P design is titled "The Generous Leader," linking the goat to gathering, abundance and the transformation of grapes into eaux-de-vie.
The edition wears its artwork twice: a gold bottle finish with the embossed Hennessy 1765 medallion and a "Design by RAXXY" label, and a matching gift box covered in a vivid red, green and gold mosaic of petals and rays, with a ram at its center. The liquid inside is the signature Hennessy V.S.O.P Privilège, a blend of about 60 eaux-de-vie aged in French Limousin oak, bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof). It is a standout gift for the Lunar New Year and a striking piece for any cognac collection.
