What is Hennessy Cognac
Hennessy is basically a liqueur manufacturing company, situated in Cognac, France, and is the world’s largest producer of cognac. Their products are a favorite among all, whether those who drink Hennessy every day, or who have tried for the first time. Hennessy is a gluten-free cognac drink with a total calorie of 69. As cognac is distilled wine, Hennessy tastes quite similar to wine, with a richer taste of alcohol. The ‘proof’ and the percentage of alcohol (abv) vary between their products, and so does the question whether you can drink it neat or not.
