Hennessy Paradis was released in 1979, created by Maurice Fillioux, as successor of Hennessy Extra, though the name extra was added to the Paradis label for quite some time, apparently to ensure the public would understand what Paradis actually stood for.

Hennessy Paradis Cognac is made from a blend of eaux-de-vie, some of which are up to 100 years old, that have been carefully selected and aged in oak barrels. The type of grape used in the production of this cognac is the Ugni Blanc, which is grown in the Cognac region of France, where the Hennessy house is located. The terroir, combined with the unique aging process, gives this cognac a unique and complex flavor profile.

This Hennessy Paradis Rare Cognac, launched around 1990, was bottled in a slightly re-shaped decanter compared to the distinctive 1979 decanter and remained in service until 2001 when it got replaced by the new Ferruccio Laviania decanter

This is really a shame as Logis de la Mothe is arguably one of the best Cognacs ever produced. Vieille Reserve was the oldest expression in their humble range and as such the best they had to offer.
