Created in 2011, Paradis Impérial is the work of several generations of Master Blenders. A quest for excellence and extreme precision in selecting eaux-de-vie with ultimate finesse define the essence of this unique blend. In any given harvest, only a very limited number of eaux-de-vie may be deemed worthy of one day entering this blend, on average just ten out of 10,000. Now this quest has been magnified in an art installation by the art collective Marshmallow Laser Feast, created in the heart of the Founder's Cellar, where the Maison keeps its rarest eaux-de-vie.
The Founder's Cellar is a 'paradise' where Hennessy preserves its rarest and most precious eaux-de-vie, the starting point for the quest by the Master Blender and the Paradis Impérial cognac. This blend embodies the art of selection that has been passed on over eight generations of Master Blenders from the Fillioux family. Their role is to identify the potential of finesse in an eau-de-vie, and then guide it to its apogee of elegance, the precise moment when it is ready to be part of a Paradis Impérial blend.
