HENNESSY PARADIS, A REFLECTION OF MUSICAL HARMONY
On this journey, Hennessy Paradis turns back to its inspirational beginnings grounded in music. When
sixth generation Master Blender Maurice Fillioux created Paradis in 1979, he implemented his love for
symphony as a starting point - Maurice was the conductor and the rare eaux-de-vie from the legendary
Cellar that Maison Hennessy used to call “Paradis” were his instruments. Maurice famously said,
“classical music takes you away and connects with your emotion.”
From that impassioned beginning, Paradis became the secret treasure of Hennessy’s portfolio, defined by
its meticulous blending process, long maturation, and an unparalleled essence of luxury that unites in a
rhythmic performance. The result is one of the world’s finest and most beloved blends, cherished by
connoisseurs and appreciated by novices in equal measure for its elegance, dynamism, and vitality.
A ‘cognac lover’s cognac’ from the elegance of its sensual presentation to the complexity of its perfectly
balanced blend, Paradis reflects a unified symphony that delights on every level.
Decades later, music continues to bring Paradis to life. Influenced by the world’s natural beauty and the
cognac’s own roots in symphonic harmony, every ‘Paradis is on Earth’ moment is a transporting
experience suspended by music. Global music icons Alicia Keys and Lang Lang got ‘Paradis is on Earth’ off
to a blissful start in the sweeping desert landscape of the American West, where they experienced the joy
of playing together while taking inspiration from their exquisite natural surroundings.
