The first and only time I tried Hennessy was 15 years ago when my husband ordered it on his 21st birthday. I remember spitting it out and thinking it tasted like gasoline. 🤣 This was before either of us developed our palettes. We didn’t even like coffee back then! Lol, we were such dumb kids. Now that we’re adults and can appreciate good food and spirits, we’ll need to try it again with one of these cocktails.
My favourite cognac cocktail ist a Morning Melancholia: 6 cl (2 oz) Cognac 2,25 cl (3/4 oz) Chartreuse Verte 3 cl (1 oz) limejuice 2,25 cl (3/4 oz) Orgeat Shake with ice and strain into glass with fresh ice. Mint sprig for garnish.
I love Hennessy (as well as Delamain, Kelt, Ferrand, and Martell). All three of these cocktails look delicious. I'm a sucker for a good Manhattan riff. Thanks J-F! Important Question: What style of Amaro do you recommend for the Downtown Manhattan? Obviously this is a sponsored video, so you opted to support the brand that is paying the bills (et merci beaucoup Hennessy). Your bottle looks like it might contain a rich dark bittersweet Amaro like Averna or Ramazzotti, but I might be inclined to try this with something spicier like Meletti or Nonino. What did you use, s'il vous plaît?
He really should have mentioned which amaro he used. Huge difference between something like Averna to a Fernet-Branca. Amaro is a huge family and the flavor difference is not subtle at all, amaro is just italian herbal liquor. Hell even vermouth is technically a type of amaro.
Que bueno tiene que estar ese Coñac francés. Cuando pueda pruebe el Brandy Luis Felipe , o el Brandy Cardenal Mendoza , seguro que le gustara un saludo desde Málaga 😊😊😊😊
This is a great ad, mate. I'm more of a Fontpinot or Remy Martin kinda guy. The Classic and Downtown Manhatten look fantastic. I'll try those out, thanks for the great video!
Nice video! The summit would have been a nice one to show too! (it's called like that because it was the winner creation cocktail of a mixology summit held... well you've guessed, in the city of Cognac). It's simple to make and awesome to taste!
Beautiful spirits, wonderful display and video editing show casing each cocktail on how they’re made. Very impressed with the video and appreciate how you expressed everything. Cheers from Ontario 🥃
Great discussion, as always. I know this is going to be hyper offensive to anyone with a French or Quebecois background, but I normally slum it with local brandy when mixing and save my cognac/armagnac for sipping. Also, separate from the content... the production values on your videos are like twelve steps ahead of the game. Smart move by Hennessy.
I don’t think this is offensive, as long as your brandy has the right flavour profil to work in you cocktail. That said all those spirits, even within the same category, have different taste. So keep that in mind , maybe you are not always doing justice to you cocktail when doing so. But at the end of the day, if you’re happy with what you’re drinking, that what matters
Love Cognac! Whohoooo. Brandy also a fav. If someone makes “cognac” outside the region specified what is it called? (Such as sparkling wine is champagne made outside the Champagne region). Also: we use elderflower liqueur (St. Germain) a lot in cocktails - is that what you’re using?
I try and avoid cocktails usually as I am a diabetic and many cocktails contain sugar in some form or another. Are there any cocktails that are suitable for diabetics?
I think they all are great Cognac. Overrated? I don't think so. They have great qualities at a good price tag. Is there other great Cognac in the same range? Of course but I don't think this dimenishes the quality of Hennessy.
There is no better brand over another. The brand is apparently important in the us but it’s a none sense regarding Cognac. Personally my favorite (but i’s my taste) is VSOP from Remi Landier.
I hope, if it was not the case already that you now love Cognac as much as I do!

Hey man love the stuff!! What other bottles would you recommend. Not sponsored, but your personal favorites.
The first and only time I tried Hennessy was 15 years ago when my husband ordered it on his 21st birthday. I remember spitting it out and thinking it tasted like gasoline. 🤣 This was before either of us developed our palettes. We didn’t even like coffee back then! Lol, we were such dumb kids. Now that we’re adults and can appreciate good food and spirits, we’ll need to try it again with one of these cocktails.
Oh no 😆 Well that’s understandable... I guess 😉
It’s not that your palettes weren’t developed it’s that the body knows when it’s tasting shit. You just forced it to adapt which is why you can deal.

New intro is dope!
100%
i bought some courvoisier a few months back, and deeply regret not getting hennessey lol
glad to see some ideas for how to use it up.
Courvosier > Hennessey

I was going to ask the same question!

I like your ring and Casio World Timer. Great job on the cocktails.
Thanks 🙏
So glad you are getting sponsorship. I hope the deal included lots of cognac! Hopefully they make you a brand ambassador
Just picked up a bottle of Hennessy VSOP so this video was recommended at the right time!
Love it! Enjoy my friend 👌
@@TrufflesOnTheRocks cheers! 🥂
Que bueno tiene que estar ese Coñac francés.

I just made downtown Manhattan with Hennessy VS. I added a teaspoon of maraschino syrup…..it’s a delightful cocktail. Thank you!
That’s great to hear! Thank you 🙏
Use to make homemade eggnog.
Aprecio este coñac....desde Fort Worth, Texas
Nice video.

I love cognac Hennessy Pierre ferrand Camus and Louis Royer selection
Nice selection! There are so many good cognacs out there!
Which amaro is used in the Manhattan?
Great video as always Jean! What type of amaro do you use? Montenegro?
Love hennessy
This is a great ad, mate. I'm more of a Fontpinot or Remy Martin kinda guy. The Classic and Downtown Manhatten look fantastic. I'll try those out, thanks for the great video!
Remy is great - just started getting Hine in my state, also worth it if you like fine champaign cognac
@@kevinbabic630 Then I highly recommend the Fontpinot XO to you.
Great video
Nice video!
The summit would have been a nice one to show too! (it's called like that because it was the winner creation cocktail of a mixology summit held... well you've guessed, in the city of Cognac). It's simple to make and awesome to taste!

Michael, thank you so much for this awesome comment! Means a lot. Cheers 🥃

Great vid! What camera do you use for your videos?
Cognac is for lovers
thanks, now I want to buy a bottle of Hennessy, but never wanted before
Can I sub elderflower liqueur for the syrup? I have the Giffard Premium on hand.
I have the cognac black.. will those recipes work with the black?
Im sure it will
Like new intro but miss the original one too! Loved learning about cognac. When do you and Sefra move? France , correct?
i mean these all obviously look great (i’m drinking the second one as i type this!) but did anyone think he wasn’t gonna say they were great? 😜
30ml amaro silano
30 ml sweet vermouth
10 ml maraschino
2 dashes of angostora
Interesting and Entertaining ! :-) How about a follow-up video (or link) about the difference between Brandy and Cognac ? :-)
Not a bad idea at all 😉
Would cognac be good with tonic water?
Not my first choice but some poeple like it.
I wish I wasn't so lazy about cocktails. I want to drink these, but don't want to hunt down the ingredients. But neat is always an option.
like first, watch video then.
Hennessy has coloring and additives
which amaro is used here?
I used Averna
I feel like I could be a cognac fan
Love Cognac! Whohoooo. Brandy also a fav. If someone makes “cognac” outside the region specified what is it called? (Such as sparkling wine is champagne made outside the Champagne region). Also: we use elderflower liqueur (St. Germain) a lot in cocktails - is that what you’re using?
I think he is making his own elderflower syrup but I hope you can just use st germain as I’m lazy
Outside of Cognac or Armenac I would assume is just called brandy, since those two are region exclusive names.
the syrup he’s using is non alcoholic
Where I live Hennessy is a hip hop club and car jacker drink. I won’t debase myself to drink what a felon drinks. There must be alternatives.
Sidecars are so goood.
The best way to get very drunk😂
I love cognac and hennessy but hennessy vs is no for me. I start at vsop lol
Ppl try KC tea 😉
I try and avoid cocktails usually as I am a diabetic and many cocktails contain sugar in some form or another. Are there any cocktails that are suitable for diabetics?
What is cognac? Fermented pigeon droppings.
E150 Craftmanship
Hennessy it’s very expensive compared to others.
Chỉ khi nó làm hài lòng bản thân còn không thì đó không phải là thứ mình muốn.
1738 Remy Martin. Enough said. If you know you know...
Surprised you didn't say excuse me at 9:24. Excuse you😷
Them loud cork ;)
Trudeau your rich 🤑
Somewhere around 5 mins into the video, thank me later
me for no reason, add some diet coke youll be good
Cognac is just brandy and champagne is just sparkling wine
Hennessey and Coke, one of the worst cocktail ever.
.... What the babbling.....
Henessy is so overrated, drink Martel or Courvoisier and you will understand why i say this. From a cognac lover of France
I think they all are great Cognac. Overrated? I don't think so. They have great qualities at a good price tag. Is there other great Cognac in the same range? Of course but I don't think this dimenishes the quality of Hennessy.
There is no better brand over another. The brand is apparently important in the us but it’s a none sense regarding Cognac. Personally my favorite (but i’s my taste) is VSOP from Remi Landier.
