Hennessy VS 2011 KAWS
New York-based artist KAWS needs little in the form of introduction around these circles. From an artist on the streets to full-fledged gallery showings and toys, KAWS’s latest project involves the storied cognac producer, Hennessy. This artist collaboration features a meeting of Hennessy’s tradition with the progressive and iconic aesthetics of KAWS on a limited edition bottle of V.S. Cognac.
A total of 210,000 bottles have been produced, each carrying its own unique number, released September 2011 through selected channels. Besides the 100cl version Hennessy also issued 210.000 bottles (70cl) and 420.000 bottles (750ml), the latter for the US market.

Hennessy was founded in 1765 by Irishman Richard Hennessy, Captain in the French Army. It took Hennessy just a few years to dominate the market and actually they have never lost their leading position since. Hennessy was the first producer which came with a Extra Old (XO) and they also invented the star-ranking system. In 1971 Hennessy merched with Moët et Chandon forming Moët-Hennessy. After their 1987 merger with Louis Vuton the newly formed company LVMH became one of the largest conglomerates in luxury products. One year later, in 1988, Bernard Arnault purchased a share of LVMH and eventually became the new owner of Hennessy, still world's largest producer of Cognac.
