Special Hennessy Cognac for Jamaica 50


Hey World!:)

The Hennessy brand has come on board to celebrate Jamaica 50 with us by producing Special Limited Edition bottles of the Hennessy Cognac. Yeah!!! *back flips* Earlier this week Maurice Richard Hennessy (pictured above), an eight generation descendant and an ambassador of the brand was on the island to launch the Very Special (VS) Limited Edition bottles at the French Embassy in Jamaica on Monday, April 30, 2012.

Oh yes, did i forget to mention that this will only be sold in Jamaica?! Hahaha. Well afterall, as Jamaicans we are the trendsetters for the Hennessy Cognac in the Caribbean, so why not do a lil summin special for us.^_^


Also as a part of the Jamaica 50 celebrations, Hennessy Jamaica and J. Wray & Nephew Limited will also be running a bartender competition to find the Hennessy very special Jamaica 50 official cocktail. The deadline has now passed but it is worthwhile to remember the dates for the finals.

The Hennessy Bartender Competition regional finals will take place in Ocho Rios at Ocean’s 11 on April 16, in Montego Bay at Pier 1 on April 17 (for Montego Bay and Negril) and in Kingston at Macau on April 19. The winners of the three regional finals will compete in the grand finals on April 24 at J. Wray & Nephew Limited in Kingston.
